Is that allowed?
Yes, of course it is. Who will stop you? The sheep manure police??

If there were any sheep manure police my grandfather would have been in

But he lived in more sensible times. I am telling you the sober truth
when I say that a Devon woman got into some kind of trouble for allowing
her dog to take home a stick it had picked up in some privately owned
woodland. Honestly.
This is stupid.
However if you go out into the countryside to pick up sheep muck or a
cow
pat to make liquid manure it's unlikely you''ll get arrested. -
Unless.. there are manure police watching for this very thing, if so you
are
in real trouble.
What the above example is saying - and I agree it's stupid - is that you
can take nothing from private land without the owner's permission. How
does the would-be dung gatherer know the land owner doesn't want to keep
that dung for his own composting/fertilising use?

They don't, but unless the farmer is able to count every little sheep pellet
or cow pat passed by a flock of 200 sheep/60 cows or so on a daily basis,
and notice there's a few missing, they'll never know, will they? ;-)
