    Great to see these photos of how the rune stone looks today and of the place where it stands. Thanks Steffe for posting the link. :) You can also read more (in Swedish only) about the Hassmyra rune stone on the website of the Swedish National Heritage Board: raa.se/cms/extern/kulturarv/arkeologi_och_fornlamningar/f... /Anna B.
