There never was a Prime Minister of England. At the time of the first prime minister England was part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.

The first prime minister of the UK was Robert Walpole (1676-1745). His period of office lasted from 1721-1742.

(The term 'prime minister' had no official standing in Britain till 1906. It was a more a nickname for the chief minister, who held the office of First Lord of the Treasury. However, there is unanimous agreement among historians that Walpole was the first prime minister of a cabinet style government responsible to Parliament).
