玉水村(别称玉水古村)在梅州市梅江区城北镇西北部,设8个村民小组,2013年列入第二批中国传统村落名录。[1][2]

历史沿革[edit]

村落始建于明代中期,原称小浊水。据村情资料,此地旧时山光地瘠,一遇下雨,农田被洪水冲刷,水色浑浊,故名浊水;新中国成立后植树造林,荒山变绿,水也变清,遂改名玉水。[1][2]

1949年设玉水乡,隶属城北区;1956年撤区并乡,归城西乡。1958年改设玉水大队,属卫星人民公社(后称梅城人民公社),1960年改属新设的城北人民公社。1983年设玉水乡;1987年改为村民委员会,隶属城北乡;1989年称玉水管理区;1998年定名为玉水村民委员会,隶属城北镇。[1]

地理环境[edit]

玉水村在松柏寨(海拔500米)下的山间谷地,黄姜溪流经全境,村内有河猪笼、黄沙坑两座小水库。村落距镇政府约15千米。[2]

名胜古迹[edit]

玉水村保存有围龙屋7座,形制包括杠式楼、方围楼等客家民居;代表性建筑有崇善堂(1907年)、竹园堂(1892年),另有「源开壁水」匾额和木雕。村西存有逾400年历史的盐商古道卵石路面和古当铺遗址。明清时期,这里是粤赣商贸运输的必经之地,现存古驿站遗迹。[2]

2012年,玉水村获评广东省古村落;2013年8月列入第二批中国传统村落名录。[1][2]

经济[edit]

村情资料载,全村总面积8.4平方公里,耕地701亩,种水稻和三华李,李子是特色收入;所记上一年农村经济总收入893万元(年份未注明)。村里还发展栗、柿、药材的立体种植,并获市生态村称号。[1]百度百科称传统经济以水稻、金柚为主,兼营「四大家鱼」养殖。[2]

人口民族[edit]

百度百科记载,村里2015年末有户籍人口663人,旅居海外的华人华侨多在法属留尼旺岛及东南亚各地。[2]
