The parish of Bingham sits in Rushcliffe, Nottinghamshire, in England, roughly nine miles east of Nottingham. It occupies a largely agricultural setting with the small watercourse of the River Smite nearby and benefits from good rail and road links, which have helped make it a convenient commuter base for the surrounding towns and cities.
