I think they had black slaves in England, but on a much smaller scale then America. It was also ended much quicker and without a war by simply buying the slaves and freeing them.
Black slavery was considerably less in Europe because they already had white serfs who were almost slaves.
There might have also been indentured servants(a sort of voluntary slavery) from India, but I'm not sure. indentured servants were basically the same as serfs.
