History of Bingham
Bingham has expanded vastly since the 1950s, and much of the housing is relatively new. Most of the older buildings (including the Church of St. Mary and All Saints, Bingham, the oldest) are in the centre. About 500 houses are being built bordering the A52 (Grantham Road) and the existing Mill Hill estate. There have been concerns that the 1,000+ people who will move into these new houses will require services which the local councils seem reluctant to provide, despite the large sums gained for the Exchequer from the sale of the land in public ownership. Another 1,000 houses are planned as part of future Bingham, north of the railway line. The A46, to the west of the town, was upgraded and completed in 2013 as a grade-separated dual carriageway. The Widmerpool-Newark Improvement has been diverted to the west of the former Roman town to preserve archaeological remains. The A52 bypass to the south of the town opened in December 1986.
