In the [[Domesday Book]] of 1086, Bingley is listed as "Bingheleia":

<blockquote>''m In Bingheleia hb. Gospatric iiij car' tra e' ad gld. tra ad ii car' Ernegis de burun h't. & Wast' e'. T.R.E. val, iiij lib'. Silva past' ii leu' lg' & i lat'. Tot' m' e iiij leu' lg' & ii lat'''<ref>{{OpenDomesday|OS=SE1039 |name=Bingley |display=Bingheleia |accessdate= }}</ref></blockquote>

which roughly translated reads:

<blockquote>In Bingheleia, Gospatric has a manor of four carucate of land to be taxed, land for two ploughs.  Ernegis de Burun has it and it is waste. In the time of King Edward the Confessor it was valued at four pounds.  Woodland pasture two leagues long and one broad. All the manor is four long and two broad.</blockquote>
