I have a Bailey Senator Indiana Series 5.
Those in the know, will know it's single axel.
I've just noticed that both tyres need a topping up of air.
I have a foot-pump for this purpose.
Does anyone know the recommended PSI (pound per square inch) that I should inflate to?
Thanks people!!

Isn't the tyre pressure on the weight plate beside the door? That's where it is on the Ranger. Otherwise tyre pressure depends on the caravan weight and tyre size and load ratings.

PS You may be able to download a copy of the handbook from the Bailey website, if you go in to the Parts Direct section look for manuals/handbooks on the top left hand side.

Size and type of tyre fitted and maximum weight of van, MTPLM, is required to give an accurate pressure

As Rob & Tina have suggested, the pressure should be on the weight label which is the norm for Bailey.
That said, if the tyres have possibly been changed for a slightly different spec from original, then pressure could be different, so please post requested info for an accurate reply.
You can't second guess based on others who also have Bailey vans; mine for example are spec'd at 55psi which is a fair bit above the other suggestion posted above.
