IJhorst. IJhorst (Dutch: De Rieverst) is a village in the Dutch province of Overijssel. IJhorst is located in the Reestdal area on the border of Overijssel and Drenthe and has 1,500 inhabitants (2019).

In IJhorst there is a church built in 1823 with a separate bell chair. This church building was restored in 1995. The church is used by the Reformed Municipality of IJhorst/De Wijk. By the way, the village differs significantly from the rest of the municipality of Staphorst, because it is much less orthodox.

A water pump is a pump that brings water to the surface, either by hand or by moving a crank back and forth. A manual pump is also called a crank pump.
In the past, groundwater (also called well water), or rainwater for consumption or other purposes, was usually taken out of a well or cistern using an aker. Surface water was also widely used.
