Best Answer

In 1066 AD, The Normans, under William the Conqueror. No one since then.
Great Britain of which England is a part has only really been conquered twice in its long history.

The Roman Conquest of Britain in AD 43 under Emperor Claudius, whose general Aulus Plautius served as first governor of Britannia.

Britain had enjoyed diplomatic and trading links with the Romans in the century

since Julius Caesar's expeditions in 55 and 54 BC

The Norman Conquest by William 1 in 1066

Other tribes such as the Vikings, Danes and the Anglo-Saxons settled in Britain after the Roman occupation ended but they were not true conquerors.
