Slingbourne is the smallest village in the municipality Weststellingwerf. It lies in the southwest point of the municipality, where Tsjonger and Linde come together. It is with 37 inhabitants (January 1, 2008, source: CBS) the smallest village in the municipality.
The village is located in the Great Veenpolder on the border between Overijssel and Friesland, a house that likes to be watched by Slijkenburg, falls below Overijssel and thus the Kunder. In the Middle Ages, there was already a fear for people who wanted to go to The Kunder. The fee was paid to the monastery. There must then have been a fortified farm or castle with the name of Slikenburg. The comet was founded in 1585 in the heyday of Spangea as a defensive defense for Friesland on the Linde. In the year 1672 a hierarchy was built here, which destroyed the entire village, as a defense of the southwestern supply route of Friesland towards Leeuwarden, against the oppressive troops of the Bishop of Munster. The shield would be lightened in 1702 to use the ground for the construction of the new State Dike between Schoterzijl and Slijkenburg. This around the corner where Tsjonger and Linde together to better protect against the water. In one of the, already abolished, houses of Sligo borough stood the year 1587. After the mud, there will probably be homes soon. The shadow is no longer indicated in the atlas of Schotanus from 1716.
