+.. _EnumeratedStringProperty:
+
+What is EnumeratedStringProperty?
+---------------------------------
+
+``EnumeratedStringProperty`` allows the use of ``EnumeratedString`` objects within the Property structure framework.
+
+How to use the EnumeratedStringProperty
+---------------------------------------
+
+Include the ``EnumeratedStringProperty.h`` header file. Set up the ``EnumeratedStringProperty`` as follows:
+
+.. code-block:: cpp
+
+    namespace {
+        const std::vector<std::string> binningModeNames{"Default", "Linear", "Logarithmic", "ReverseLogarithmic", "Power"};
+        enum class BinningMode { DEFAULT, LINEAR, LOGARITHMIC, REVERSELOG, POWER, enum_count };
+        typedef Mantid::Kernel::EnumeratedString<BinningMode, &binningModeNames> BINMODE;
+    } // namespace
+
+Declare property:
+
+.. code-block:: cpp
+
+    declareProperty(
+        std::make_unique<EnumeratedStringProperty<BinningMode, &binningModeNames>>("PropertyName"),
+        "Description"
+    );
+
+Use declared property:
+
+.. code-block:: cpp
+
+    BINMODE binMode = someName;
+    if (binMode == BinningMode::LINEAR)
+        do_something();
+    else if (binMode != "Default")
+        do_something_else();
+
+Determining and using pre-set mode, if present, or using the default setting:
+
+.. code-block:: cpp
+
+    BINMODE binMode;
+    if (existsProperty("PropertyName"))
+        Mode = getPropertyValue("PropertyName");
+    else
+        Mode = "Default";
+
+Example Use of EnumeratedString
+-------------------------------
+
+Please see examples of usage in ``Rebin.cpp``, ``CalculateDIFC.cpp``, and ``AddSampleLog.cpp``.
