I wasn't sure how to classify these stones, because they both bear ogham inscriptions. They are undoubtedly a stone pair, though, and they align on an odd bump on the Monavullagh Mountains to the west.
The westmost stone is tall (2m) and slim with a rectangular plan. The other is more standing-stone-like and is spearhead-shaped and leans slightly. The ogham inscriptions on both are on the west edge and are very worn.
30m to the east of the stones is an unusual enclosure that is built on a steep slope. Inside this there is a rectangular drystone platform and the floor area is scattered with stones.
