England? Well there was Cornish and Manx. Cornish went extinct in the 18th century but the last monoglot speaker died in the 17th century.

I am not counting Welsh since that is in Wales... And Scots Gaelic is in Scotland, its own country.

The Scots and Irish keep Gaelic alive just to piss off the British.
