雷西村在盖洋镇西南部,距镇区6公里,西面与本镇大坑村相邻,并与宁化县泉上镇交界[1]。

历史沿革[edit]

村名取自辖区内雷埂、西瓜墩两个自然村名的首字[1]。县政府网站称雷西为千年古村落[2]。明清两朝属归化县三都。1954年隶属盖洋区雷西乡,三元与明溪县于1956年合并;1983年设盖洋区雷西乡人民政府,1987年起改称盖洋镇雷西村民委员会,至今沿用[1]。

据当地老辈人说,唐朝时已有吴、黄、李姓村民在此定居,后来有雷姓人家迁来,至今约两百年。当地称本点为“雷涧”,因为四面环山、中间有溪涧缓缓流过[2]。

南宋末年,将乐南口温坊的汤姓人士汤万宝迁居雷涧,成为雷西汤姓的始祖,其后汤姓逐渐成为村中最大的姓氏[2]。族中建有祠堂七座,其中天如公祠保存完好[2]。

《民国·福建通志》记载,南宋景炎元年(1276年),杨淑妃在雷涧杨家一带隐居,元朝初年聚众反元,终被捕获,押往福州遇害[2]。

2021年11月,雷西村获得「2021年福建省卫生村」称号[1]。

名胜古迹[edit]

村尾有一座石拱桥,小巧精致,桥边设有石凳和小屋供村民休息。村中至今立着清嘉庆三年贡生汤廷瑛所立的石旗杆,溪边还有一株近千年树龄的罗汉松[2]。

西瓜墩处原有一座廊桥,原名交际桥,人称红军桥。1930年初,毛泽东率红军经过雷西,在此造饭、付给村民银元,并在桥上写下标语。原木廊桥后因年久失修倒塌,村民集资改建为钢筋水泥廊桥[2]。
