Where is London's most central sheep?

It's time to tackle one of London's great unanswered questions. Where is London's most central sheep? I'm only interested in live sheep, so not a cuddly toy in Hamleys nor lamb cutlets at The Ritz.

I didn't see her initially, she was hiding inside a free-standing wooden structure as if trying to escape the hubbub, the yard also being home to three occasionally frisky alpacas called Rolo, Toffee and Cookie. This particular corner of the farmyard by the entrance is actually the furthest north so I can state with some certainty that the back ewe was London's most central sheep at the time I took this photo, and next to her the second, third and fourth. The map's interesting because eight of the city farms form a near straight line running diagonally from Kentish Town through Hackney and Mudchute to the foot of Shooters Hill, but I think that's a coincidence.
