Bingham Station: towards Nottingham Bingham is a stop on the Grantham-Nottingham line. The station house dates from the opening of the line in 1850 and was designed by the celebrated Nottingham architect T C Hine. The platform waiting rooms were demolished many years ago and the station master's house, no longer in railway use, was adapted, though many of its original external features remain.

Bingham Station Bingham Station, built by the Ambergate, Nottingham & Boston & Eastern Junction Railway (only the Nottingham-Grantham section was built) opened in 1850. The line became part of the Great Northern Railway 1861 and passed to the LNER at the 1923 Railway Grouping. The station buildings were designed by the celebrated Nottingham architect T C Hine. The platform buildings were demolished some time after the station became an unstaffed halt in the late 1960s and only the station house seen here remains, in adapted form but retaining a number of original features.
