There's another use for this, meaning something like "wrapping once around", which isn't really captured in the current meanings.  It's the use of 巻き in a context like 帯を二巻きします (wrap the obi twice around) or 車を二巻きにして砕きそうな大蛇　(a snake so big it could wrap twice around a car and crush it). It's closer to the 巻き meaning #2, "winding".

I believe that, like meaning 4, this use is restricted to the まき reading, so I've added it there.  Please adjust if necessary.

Daijr: "村の行政事務を行う役所".

I guess you have to keep in mind the 市町村 classification. I know in Australia the terminology is rather looser (we don't really use "village"). A recent decision by the government statistician to restrict the "town" category to settlement with populations of more than 200 has caused outrage.

See below.

The meaning above seems to me to give slightly the wrong impression; albeit that Kenkyusha supports it. In the English interpretation, in the mind of an Englishman, one at least, this gives the impression of an office in a village. Whereas, in reality this one Englishman thinks that it really means an official office [e., official village office - somewhat smaller than a town hall might imply]. I am sure that a Japanes person would only associate this entry with something similar to the Parish Council Offices [like we have in England]. Your other entries and elsewhere confirm the official nature of "役場", for example:-

役場 【やくば】 (n) town hall; (P)
役人 【やくにん】 (n) government official; (P)

I am suggesting that something implying the concept of official is included in the meaning.
