This section of the obverse, however, is severely degraded by dripping water or other erosion” (Lindqvist 1941/42 II, pp. 17–18). The border decoration represents a typical simplified twisted cord pattern.\n\nLindqvist only provides a photo of the unpainted stone on which the horse, in particular its forepart, are very difficult to discern (1941/42 II, fig. 309). The photos kept in ATA (Run- och bildstenssamling), including the one taken by Faith-Ell in 1933, are without paint as well.

That this motif was used by Type B artists as well is proven by GP 78 Eskelhem Larsarve II (see IX). Regarding the horse fight interpretation, see the entry of GP 198 Hellvi Ire 7 and the following literature: Gjessing 1943, pp. 29–30; Lindqvist 1955, pp. 41–43; Ellmers 1970, pp. 243–245; Lamm/Nylén 2003, p. 26; Althaus 1993, pp. 87–89, 192–193; Lamm 1999; Beck 2003, pp. 96–97; Guber 2011, pp. 55–56; Pesch 2015a, p. 357; Oehrl 2019a, pp. 62–63."

According to Martin Rundkvist’s (2012, p. 159) typology, the stone’s shape represents Type dwarf4, belonging to his period 4, which he dates to the Late Vendel Period. The chessboard pattern in the monument’s lower part is reminiscent of the rhombic pattern on GP 193 Hellvi Ire III; GP 354 Sjonhem Lilla Sojvide; GP 340 Sanda Sandegårda I; GP 273 Norrlanda Bjärs; and GP 92 Gammelgarn Rommunds.

På den nedre delen av stenen ett rektangulärt nätmönster (segel?) och på den övre vänstra delen en springande häst. Den övre högra delen är skadad av erosion, men kan ha haft en motsvarande häst. Kantdekoration bevarad.  \n\nDatering \nDateringen oklar, men tillhör perioden 500-700. \n\nTolkning \nOm även den övre högra delen av stenen har haft en bild av en häst kan stenen ha framställt en hingsthetsning.  \n\nAA"
