St. Andrew (click on photograph to bring up bigger/better version).

	In Le Grais Lane, off Route de L'Issue, St. Andrew. The lead tank carries an embossed inscription:
	ABH 1804
	Which is the oldest date I've found on a Guernsey pump. Above it an engraved plaque carries the words:
	RESTORED IN 1985 BY ST ANDREWS PARISH TO CELEBRATE 40 YEARS OF PEACE MAY 9-1945-85
	We've subsequently been told that this 1985 restoration made use of a replacement pump which came from a farmhouse at La Ramée, St. Peter Port.
	Markings: None other. Manufacturer: Unk.

On Rue des Landes/Landes St., St. Andrew. We're told that the pump was installed for decorative purposes, and that there is no water source associated with it. Certainly the chopped off delivery pipe implies that it had a former role elsewhere in lifting water to a house or barn. Markings: Flag. Manufacturer: Lee Howl.

On Les Poidevins, St. Andrew. Thanks to Ann Wragg for the photos. Markings: "PAROISSE DE ST ANDRE 1899". Manufacturer: Unk.

On La Rue des Hougues, St. Andrew. (Oh dear, camera defeated the operator.) Markings: "1896" and some floral decorations. Manufacturer: Unk.
