Sheep likely to be in road ahead

Sheep likely to be in road ahead sign

What it means

Sheep roam loose along this road, typically on moorland, commons and unfenced hill roads where nothing separates the field from the tarmac. They move as a flock and bolt without warning. Slow right down, be ready to stop, and pass at a crawl; if one crosses, expect the rest to follow it.
