Binnamore is shown on the late 19th century historic map. Farm layout is apparently unchanged from the Tithe Map depiction.

Binnamore is recorded as 'Bynnemore'; 'Bynna's Moor', possibly 14th century?

Dartmoor National Park Authority, 2003 - 2005, Dartmoor National Park Authority Farmstead Survey 2003-2005, HF053 (Report - Survey). SDV344545.

Farmstead included in survey. Visited on 16/01/2004. Current farmhouse is 20th century.

Ordnance Survey, 2010, MasterMap (Cartographic). SDV344030.

The modern mapping of Binnamore shows the old farmhouse building is mostly gone now; the south-western end appears to have been retained, which would appear to confirm the details from the ADAS worksheet in 1995.
