Set in the bottom of dip these two stones, which appear to be a male and female pair, are really worth a visit.
One has been repaired where it has broken off - a nice surprise that someone has taken the time to do it!
The taller of the two stones is just under 2m tall. The other is around 1.8m high. The axis of the pair is roughly north-south. Looking south they align to a distant dip in the Mourne Mountain skyline. Looking north they align with the top of Deehommed Mountain.
The 'male' stone (the southernmost one) is set so that its own long axis is not inline with the axis of the row. A line through this stone's axis points to a low point in the near skyline to the northwest.
