Lé Pèrquage Saint Hélyi Jèrri

Coumme ch’fut explyitchi sus BBC Jèrri à matîn, L’Pèrquage crouaîse l’Espliannade où’est qu’lé Grand Dou s’êcoulait dans la mé.

As was explained on the radio this morning, Castle Street’s Jèrriais name of Lé Pèrquage is because the Town brook ran out to sea across where the Esplanade now is. The pèrquage was the path alongside the watercourse.
