<br/>
You must know, I live about 15 km to the NNE of Dingstede in the city of<br/>
Steenwijk!<br/>
A pitty it is dark already, otherwise I would visit Dingstede right now.<br/>
Sunday I will take the family for a car-sight-seeing-ride. For you to guess<br/>
where we will go. ;-)<br/>
<br/>
Dingstede formerly belonged to Meppel. Meppel still has a school called<br/>
Dingstede and a road called Dingstedepad.<br/>

Subject: [BoundaryPoint] Former Dutch provincial enclave<br/>

<br/>
&gt; In an old school atlas (Beekman & Schuiling, 1927), I found to my<br/>
astonishment that there used to be<br/>
&gt; an enclave of the province of Drenthe in the province of Overijssel. It is<br/>
a little part on the<br/>
&gt; southern shore of the Meppelerdiep canal, and is called Dingstede. It<br/>
apparently used to be part of<br/>
&gt; Meppel municipality (Drenthe). Nowadays it is definitely part of Staphorst<br/>
municipality<br/>
&gt; (Overijssel). On a 1:25k topo map, I can see a farm called Dingstede (near<br/>
the hamlet of Hamingen).<br/>
