Picture: the big runic stone in front of the church standing in between the two mounds.
Drawings of a stone (I think this is the other stone, the small stone, not the big one in the picture ...) with transcription of the runes and translitteration in Dutch. Pictures from a booklet by Mr Leif Ingvorsen.
