Pipit?

I took this picture yesterday in Portrush, Northern Ireland. It looks like a pipit to me, but what kind of? Rock, meadow, or something else? thank you!

well, definitely not a rock pipit. but it confuses me because of the spot on the face.

I am now suspecting maybe that spot was some insect that happens to be there. apart from the spot, does it look like a meadow pipit overall? Sorry, I didn't take more pictures, it got disturbed and flew away shortly after this picture.
