It is not known exactly when the first Galamander was built or even where the idea came from. Some stories say the galamander was designed here in Vinalhaven by Elder Littlefield who worked as a blacksmith during the granite era. In 2007 the galamander, which sits beside the band stand, was painted and while it appears to be in sound condition, two wheeles show signs of deterioratioin and will soon need costly repairs.
