What makes a surface special in that gravity decreases from it to the 
centre and also that it decreases from it
into the depths of space? Why is gravity at a maximum at the surface?

The surface is the place where you switch from having some of the sun on 
one side of you, and some on the other side, to having all of the sun on 
the same side of you.

It's the closest you can get to the centre without having the gravity of 
one part of the sun being at least partly offset by the gravity from the 
other part which is pulling in the opposite direction.
