Lindsay 11 and NGC 1806 are globular clusters in the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds (SMC and LMC) respectively. Both clusters have extended asymptotic giant branches with carbon stars at the tip. Colour-magnitude diagrams are fitted with appropriate isochrones which indicate that both clusters belong to the abundant population of intermediate age in the Magellanic Clouds.
