Difficult to find out the origin of this Inn's unusual name. According to an excerp in "The History and Antiquities of the County of Somerset: With a Map ..., Volume 2; by John Collinson" the Hundred of Catash took its name from an ash tree in the road between Castle Cary and Yeovil where the court for the Hundred was held. The inn's sign shows a group of men around a table next to a tree http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1012964
