The rune stone of Ingeborg at Fällbro bro

In Fällbro bro in Taby municipality, Uppland, stands Runinskrift U 146, a rune stone measuring 1.70 meters high and 0.56 meters wide. It was erected by Ingeborg in memory of Holmsten, her husband, and Torsten, her son. The stone features a simple decoration consisting of a straight rune loop shaped like a gate.

Within the upper part of the loop and above the last line of runes is a clumsy cross. The carving is described as being unskilled and clumsy. The inscription reflects similarities with U 214, particularly in its design and the use of runes, though the carver of U 214 was skilled.

Located near U 145 and only a few hundred meters from stone Fv1946;258, the stone serves as a memorial. The final words of the inscription are repeated in a genitive form outside the loop, possibly because the carver felt they were too close to the ground within the loop itself.
