Runestone of the week

This is runestone number U 433. It is immured into an outer wall of the church of Husby-Ärlinghundra, another one of the many churches in Uppland where one has used runestones as building material.

The translation of the text sounds:

"Börn Finnvidsson had the stone raised in memory of himself".

It is not very usual that people raised their own stones...
