From the Wikipedia article
Whitefaced Woodland is a breed of sheep. It originated on the Pennine hills around the Woodland Valley, which links Derwent and Ladybower to the Snake Pass and Glossop. It is also known as Penistone sheep, after the Yorkshire town Penistone where sheep sales have been held since 1699. It is thought to be closely related to the Swaledale and the Lonk. The Whitefaced Woodland is listed as a priority breed by the Rare Breeds Survival Trust, a group that catalogues at-risk sheep breeds with small registered numbers.
