石坑镇是广东省梅州市梅县区西北部的镇，在梅县区与兴宁市交界处，距梅城约45千米，下设1个社区、17个行政村，政府驻转水潭。[1][2]据百度百科，2019年全镇面积88.07平方千米，户籍人口27114人。[1]镇内有洪秀全祖居和盘龙围两处古建筑。[1][3][4]

历史沿革[edit]

石坑一带在明代为程乡县（今梅县）石阮都之地；康熙年间建堡，起初叫祭下堡，之后易名石坑堡。[1][2]1931年（民国二十年）设祭下乡。[1][2]建国之初归梅西区管；1956年分出，成立石坑乡；1958年先并入梅西公社，不久单独成立石坑公社；1983年11月撤公社设区，1987年改为镇。[2]

关于镇名，两处资料都说，此地每隔二点五至三点五千米便有一处「石祭」，层层叠叠，石坑之名由此而来。[1][2]

地理环境[edit]

石坑镇东南邻大坪镇、瑶上镇，北与梅西镇相接，西南同兴宁市的石马镇、黄陂镇、合水镇交界。[1]博雅地名网另记，镇内地势四周高、中间低，多为丘陵，另有山地约10万亩，耕地约1.27万亩（该网未注明年份）。[2][5]气候属亚热带季风气候。[1]

人口民族[edit]

百度百科记，2019年户籍人口27114人。[1]博雅地名网记，第七次全国人口普查（2020年）时人口约1.23万人，居梅县区各街道乡镇第14位。[2]

经济[edit]

据博雅地名网转载的镇概况，农产品除稻谷外，有金柚、柑橙、李、柿、茶、姜等，茶与柿是当地传统特产，1996年石坑单丛茶得「广东省名茶」之名。[5]镇办企业出产酒类和塑料制品，石坑米酒曾被1999年深圳世界客家文化节指定为饮用酒。[5]百度百科记，2019年全镇税收收入60.9万元。[1]

名胜古迹[edit]

洪秀全祖居又称「梅魁第」，位于镇内礤梅村，始建于明永乐元年（1403年），占地约4800平方米，2007年11月作为旅游景点对外开放。[3]洪秀全是太平天国领袖，博雅地名网的镇概况称石坑是他的祖籍。[3][5]

盘龙围在龙头一带，位于龙塘、龙中、龙凤、龙径4个行政村之间，是李氏始祖屋，1480年前后由元代迁来的念七郎公后裔建成，2014年列为梅州市文物保护单位。[4]

荣誉[edit]

石坑镇获2019年度广东省卫生镇称号，授予时间为2020年2月。[2]
