Description

Rune stone in Övergrans Kyrka, Uppland (U 647).

According to the Samnordisk runtextdatabas the inscription reads: 

* kilnuk * lit * r[i]sa * stn * at * sikterf * faþur * sin * (b)[oan]ta * h[u]lmfriþaR * bali ** risti staina þis... * baþa *

Gillaug lét reisa stein at Sigdjarf, fôður sinn, bónda Holmfríðar. Balli risti steina þess[a] báða.

Gillaug had the stone raised in memory of Sigdjarfr, her father, Holmfríðr's husbandman. Balli carved both of these stones.
