What's the difference between them?

I'd say potato scones are a scone mix with added potato
Farls are a soda bread mix with potato

Or so I think, if anyone wants to correct, feel free.

As far as I was aware (and from the recipe I have)
Both potato farls and potato scones are basically mashed potato with butter, flour and salt. Then fried.

Stand corrected then.
You're still wrong down below though.
