From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bingham is an English market town in the Rushcliffe borough of Nottinghamshire, 9 miles (14 km) east of Nottingham, 11.7 miles (18.8 km) south-west of Newark-on-Trent and 15 miles (24 km) west of Grantham. The town had a population of 9,131 at the 2011 UK census (up from 8,655 in 2001).

The place-name Bingham seems to contain an Old English personal name, Bynna + ingahām (Old English).

The Romans built a fortress at Margidunum (Bingham) and a settlement at the river crossing at Ad Pontem (East Stoke) on the Fosse Way, which ran between Isca (Exeter) and Lindum (Lincoln). The south-east of Nottinghamshire later formed the wapentake of Bingham. Bingham acquired a market charter in 1341.
