**Casebrook** is a suburb on the northern side of [Christchurch](/source/Christchurch) city.

The land was farmed by Walter Case (1881?–1961). When Casebrook Intermediate was built in 1966, it combined his name with the presence of a stream near the school. The suburb developed subsequently and took its name from the school.[2] There is a Walter Case Drive in the suburb. Casebrook contains one intermediate school and home to a local soccer team, the [Nomads United](/source/Nomads_United).
