The Anundshögsstenen is a 3 meter high runestone in a large burial field from the Late Iron Age. It's registered as Vs 13.

The runic inscription:
Folkviðr ræisti stæina þasi alla at sun sinn Heðin, broður
AnundaR. Vræiðr hiogg runaR.

Translation
"Folkvid reste alla dessa stenar efter sin son Heden, Anunds
broder. Vred högg runorna"

"Folkvid erected all these stones after his son Heden, Anunds
Brother. Vred cut the runes"

From the runestone in the north-east direction there is a long row of raised stones without an inscription and it is certainly these that are called "all these stones" in the inscription.
