Alfred spent the first 28 years of his life in Somersby. The church contains artefacts and the copy of a bust of Alfred sculpted by Thomas Woolner. In the churchyard there are interpretation boards to the Tennysons and there is also a complete perpendicular cross, which was missed by the Roundheads after the battle of nearby Winceby.
