I'm reading something on my friend's blog, "https://nebesgeryow.blogspot.com/". Richard Gendall describes some sheep as "the mountain flock, with their black faces/muzzles" These animals are a very old breed, nowadays called "Scottish blackface". Did they come from Scotland originally? Who knows? In days long gone, perhaps, sheep in Cornwall were completely black, like Welsh mountain sheep. Only the rams have horns. The ewes are polled, hornless. Nowadays, the majority of sheep are hybrid, mixed breeds.
