The stone was accordantly to the manuscript "Fynske Antiquiteter 1606" moved to Flemløse cemetery of the parish priest Thomas Nafnsen, who was vicar of Flemøse from 1553 to 1598, from a high "contrary to the  Lamme Moses (Lambs marsh) garden". The stone was later split and inserted into the cemetery wall, but removed by king Frederik VII in 1842 and led to Frederiksgave, then later in 1854 to Jægerspris.

Found: Flemløse Kirke, Langgade 27, 5620 Glamsbjerg.
Present location:
Jægerspris Slot, Slotsgården 20, 3630 Jægerspris.

The stone is granite, 175 centimetres high, 86 centimetres wide and 56 centimetres thick. It was carved somewhere between 700 and 800.

The inscription: "Æft Rōulf stændR stæinn sāsi, es vas {nuRa} goði. Sattu syniR æftiR. ĀvæiRR fāði."
