Default Unsigned Roads (30mph limit)

There are countdown signs on the approaches to some villages near where
I live: the usual diagonal stripes with a speed limit sign above, except
that the red ring is grey (presumably to stop it being a speed limit sign).

When I first saw one of those combined "countdown and speed-limit" signs,
I interpreted it as "there is a speed limit HERE, because there is
a junction in x00 metres", not "there will be a speed limit in x00 metres"
