This runestone sits high up on the west wall of St Olof’s church ruin.
“…this stone in memory of Grimulv, his mate…”.
The name Grimulv is found in four other Swedish runic inscriptions. The word,
matunautr, ‘mate’, was used about merchants who shared their daily life during a journey. Torbjörn has also carved a rune stone at St Mary’s Church, U 379, the boulder U 391 at Prästgatan and probably the damaged rune stone, U 394 in the ruin of St Peter’s Church.
