Géographie

Le terrain du Mesnil-Gilbert est très accidenté sur tout le territoire de la commune. Au nord on trouve le Mont Buon, colline assez élevée d'où l'on aperçoit Avranches, à l'ouest dans le lointain. La géologie du sous-sol est un terrain tertiaire, on rencontre tantôt du sable ou de l'argile.

La commune est traversée, au sud, par la Sée qui sépare la commune du Mesnil-Adelée. Divers ruisseaux sillonnent ou servent de limites à la commune : ruisseau du Bois-Herbert, ruisseau des Roussellières, ruisseau du Val-Borel, ruisseau de la Galande, ruisseau de la Croix-Fossé, ruisseau du Gué-Besnier, ruisseau de la Hartellerie. Deux étangs à la Motte et à la Sémondière .

La route départementale 911 traverse la commune.

Histoire

Lors la Révolution française, pendant la terreur en juin 1794, La Motte est le théâtre d'une assemblée nocturne de prêtres réfractaires et d'au moins huit cent personnes .

De 1908 à 1936, la commune bénéficie d’une gare sur la ligne ferroviaire Granville-Sourdeval.

Le Mesnil-Gilbert est libéré le 6 août 1944 par le 8^e régiment du colonel James S. Rodwell de la 4^e division d'infanterie américaine du général Barton. Dans leur contre-attaque sur Mortain, les Allemands s'approchent du bourg, sans l'atteindre .

Démographie

L'évolution du nombre d'habitants est connue à travers les recensements de la population effectués dans la commune depuis 1793.
À partir du 21^e siècle, les recensements réels des communes de moins de 10 000 habitants ont lieu tous les cinq ans, contrairement aux autres communes qui ont une enquête par sondage chaque année. En 2021, la commune comptait 138 habitants.
