The radio sources G326.3-1.8, G348.5+0.1, and G348.7+0.3 have been observed with a resolution of 0.8 arcmin by using the 1.4-GHz Fleurs synthesis telescope and with 2.2 arcmin resolution at 14.7 GHz with the Parkes 64-m telescope. These observations, in combination with lower-resolution measurements over a wide frequency range, confirm that each source is a supernova remnant in the Galaxy. G348.5+0.1 (CTB 37A) and G348.7+0.3 (CTB 37B) are of similar size and brightness and, in projection, are separated by little more than their own diameter. 'Emerging' from the shell of G348.5+0.1 is a remarkable 'jet' - a feature not previously found among supernova remnants. G326.3-1.8 (MSH 15-56) is also unusual in that it possesses not only a shell typical of most supernova remnants but also a flat-spectrum central core which shows marked similarities to the Crab nebula.
