there wasn't an England before the Saxons - it means 'Angle-land' and the Angles arrived about the same time as the Saxons and from much the same area (north Germany/Denmark as it is today). Before that, people (including those in modern Wales) would I imagine have spoken some Celtic tongues plus some Latin, the language of the rulers of the island for 400 or so years.
