For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.70 mph usually - unless special limits apply due to crossings, roundabouts or roadworks - but will be indicated clearly with round red boarded signs with the speed limit stated.
Otherwise it is the national speed limit (white round sign with a black diaganol line) - 70 mph for dual carriageways and 60 mph for single carriagways.

This is, of course, assuming you are driving a car/riding a motorbike. Look at page 9 of this pdf for a reference table.
