In the middle of the hilly, open agricultural landscape where the road between Smedstorp and Annas crosses the road between Kverrestad and East Herrestad is the village of Östra Ingelstad at Ingelstadgården.
To the west towards Kverrestad, a marked valley slopes with large fields linked to Ingelstadsgården's modern large-scale plantation.
The houses in the village are mostly clustered in the eastern part. In the southern part of the village we find a stone remnant that marks remains from prehistoric times. King Inge's grave is said to be located here. In the west, the Romanesque church from the Middle Ages, Ingelstadsgården and the pleasant village pond dominate. Here in the west is also a small hill where there was once a settlement, a predecessor to Ingelstadsgården. Today's main building dates from 1818, but there is also a grey stone warehouse from 1788. The buildings in the village are mixed. In the south there is a row of 20th century houses. The village also has a number of low, plastered cottages, known as husmanshus.
The village stone, around which the inhabitants of the village gathered to solve common problems and tasks, still exists.
East of the village, high up, is a well-preserved Dutch mill, originally built in Raskarum, but moved to Ö Ingelstad and which was in operation until about 1950. North of the village is the successful company Ingelstakalkon, which attracts large crowds daily to the shop and restaurant.
The nearest major town with services such as schools, elderly care and shops is Smedstorp, three kilometres to the northeast and the central town Tomelilla one mile to the west. Bus connections are available from Lunnarp, Bollerup and Smedstorp.
