The stone slab lies on the slope down to Gårdstadsbucht by Lake Bolmen. The scratched surface is heavily weathered. This may be partly because before the lake was submerged in the 19th century, the slab was only half a meter above the waterline and was therefore slightly exposed to the water, weather permitting.

In addition to various lines, some runes were discovered on the plate, but they don't make any sense. Håringe was already part of a main farm on the north side of the island of Bolmsö in Viking times. The inscription on the plate was probably only made in the 17th century with reference to the "glorious" past.
