There are a number of theories as to how this pub got its name. A booklet of walks obtained from the "Case" gives 3 possibilities: 1) That it was once held by a genial landlady who was not too fussy about payment for beer, but when she married the case was altered. 2) When Spanish soldiers were billeted in England they frequented the "Casa Altera": High House 3) The original pub stood further down the lane, but to attract passing trade a nearby house was taken over and altered to become the present day pub.
