Apologies for such a delay in welcoming you to the board :)  Welcome.

Unfortunately your pictures are too small and don't enlarge so it's impossible to see the detail to try and help.
Could you try and load them to about 600x 400 pixels or just less than 125kb and then hopefully someone will be along who can help you.

Hi, it is a copy of a runestone. You can see the stone itself here: http://www.hurstwic.com/history/articles/literature/text/literature.htm#Writing although it doesn’t name the stone or give a translation. You could ask them if you can’t find it elsewhere?

There is also this comprehensive site with lots of information and examples, it might be in there somewhere: https://jonaslaumarkussen.com

I think it’s on this wiki page: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/England_runestones
Includes a translation of the runes.
