The village pub at Aslackby, the Robin Hood and Little John, stands alongside the main A15 road at the turning off into the village. This ancient inn dates back to Regency times and was a regular watering stop for coaches plying between London and Lincoln. A favourite verse of past times, often quoted by customers, was: “All you men who think it good, Come have a drink with Robin Hood. If Robin Hood abroad has gone, Then have a drink with Little John.”
