Kalle Runemaster
The lower arm of the cross was carved as a whole and does
not join the foot of the cross, which in its turn goes all
the way down to the knot.
Only one other of Erik's stones,
U 738,
was carved in the same way.
The x between ”ant x hans” had to be squeezed in for all the
runes to fit. Below, you can see an article in Swedish on U 1157,
taken from the book Upplands Runskrifter.
