The perquages are a series of routes in Jersey, Channel Islands. Some claim the routes that offered sanctuary to malefactors to leave the island. All except St Ouen and St Martin lead to the south coast. For example, St Mary, St John and St Lawrence leave via St Peter's Valley and Beaumont (today a cycle track leading to the south coast).[1]
The full list of the perquages are:[2]
- St. Clement
- St. Catherine's Valley
- Grève de Lecq Valley (Mont du Grève de Lecq)
- Le Marais du Val
- Les Vaux
- Saint Peter's Valley
- Les Grands Vaux / La Vallée des Vaux
