Not sure we can say that.

Recent history (from memory) Roman invasion 55 CE. Saxon invasion 400..500 ? Viking Invasions 900...ish Norman invasion 1066

All of these invaders made big changes to the country including place names, laws and language.

And there is the archeological record of pre-historic gene lines that are extinct in England as well.
