Tips from the Community
This historic church, whose history dates back to the 12th century, is dedicated to Saints Peter and Paul, also known as the "Princes of the Apostles." Their feast day is celebrated on June 29th in all major denominations. Simon, nicknamed Peter (Rock), was a fisherman on the Sea of Galilee when he and his brother Andrew were called by Jesus Christ to be "fishers of men." In works of art, Peter is almost always depicted holding two keys, an attribute that refers to the biblical passage in Matthew: "I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven" (Matthew 16:19). Simon, nicknamed Peter (Rock), was a fisherman on the Sea of Galilee when he and his brother Andrew were called by Jesus Christ to be "fishers of men." Paul was initially an opponent of the Christian movement and, unlike the other apostles, was not called to the apostleship by Jesus Christ during his lifetime, but was converted later through the famous "Damascus Road experience." His attribute is the sword with which he was executed. Such a sentence was a "privilege" under Roman law at the time (a swift death, unlike other forms of execution which involved a long, agonizing death struggle) afforded to the citizens of Rome.

The Ship Inn lies on the banks of the River Glen in Surfleet. The current building replaced a smaller timbered one in the early 2000s. It’s a food-orientated pub and also offers accommodation.

St James is a medieval church, though largely rebuilt at its restoration in 1856. It’s a Grade I listed building. There’s a bench at the front, making the village of Aslackby (which is pronounced ‘Aze-ul-be’) a good rest spot.
