BRGY. BINISITAHAN NORTE

BRIEF HISTORY

Barangay Binisitahan Del Norte was once known as Sitio Canonera because during the Spanish time, two cannons mounted in the place coming from the watch tower in Telegrapo and Bagatao (it was known that the watch tower was equipped with cannons and manned around the clock). After several years, it was called Suba because of its location at the mouth of the Incarizan River. And later on through Philippine legislation was called Binisitahan Del Norte, from the word “Visita” which means often visited by many Spaniards and local people due to its nice location.

The barangay has a total land area of 2.7886 hectares. It is bounded in the south by Binisitahan Del Sur, by Barangay Banacud in the east, by the Sorsogon bay in the west and the Incarizan River by the north. It is just 0.10 km away from the Poblacion and 0.50 km away from the national highway.
