Known locally as the Boardee Stones, these are galláns, the Irish term for large upright monoliths typically raised in the prehistoric period, though these two are no longer upright at all. They lie prostrate in a field, and the ground around them is so waterlogged, fed by a nearby spring, that only the upper faces of the stones remain visible above the surface. Each measures roughly three metres long by one metre wide, substantial slabs that have simply been swallowed by the soft earth over time.

The stones sit close to the southern townland boundary, a positioning that may not be coincidental. Boundaries, whether of land, territory, or ritual significance, were frequently marked in prehistoric Ireland with standing stones, and it is possible the Boardee Stones once served exactly that purpose, upright and visible before the wet ground around the spring began its slow work. The details of the site were recorded by a local contact, S. O'Mahony, whose personal communication forms the basis of what little is documented about the pair. Beyond their dimensions and their slow submersion, the historical record is quiet.
