At face value, the Welsh/Scottish tend to have much more 'robust' faces than the English (although there are plenty of Brunn/Borreby types in England). The Irish are closer to the Welsh/Scottish in this regard, but seem slightly longer-faced by comparison. Beyond that, I can't quite go into detail other than to highlight how well I know England (although i am in Canada I did grow up there) and that there is a rather distinctive 'English' look (although the English are pretty diverse in this regard; the actor Phil Daniels, of a noticeable Germanic phenotype, looks very English, but the heavily Keltic-influenced Leighton Baines, also looks very English).
It's more that there are just a lot of Welsh and Scottish who do not, IMHO, pass as English. If I think of a Welsh person who looks distinctly Welsh this guy, the Rugby player, Shane Williams, comes to mind
If I think of a distinctly Scottish-looking face, Jim Kerr, lead singer of the 80s band Simple Minds, is what comes to the forefront of my consciousness (once again, its more that he wouldn't pass as English).
Although residing on the same island, at this point, it really shouldn't be a surprise that phenotypical distinctions can be made between the English and their more 'native' brethren.

From a football perspective, Aaron Ramsay( former arsenal player) looks distinctively welsh . He doesn't look English. Not even a little . Someone like Aaron Ramsdale or Jordan Pickford are uniquely English. Cannot be anything else but English. Someone like Kieran Tierney or Andrew Robertson look uniquely Scottish. Cannot be anything other than Scottish imo. What do you think?
Just to make it clear when I say uniquely, I mean within the spectrum of the British isles. For instance Im well aware that Ramsdale can pass in Finland or Norway, however he doesn't pass as anything but English within the isles.

Aaron Ramsay looks generic west Euro, if you saw him eating in a cafe in Cardiff or Ipswich or in Paris or Brussels you wouldn't think he was not from there. Ramsdale can pass as Welsh, plenty of blondes in Wales, Pickford looks more English, has a really long head and looks typical of NE england especially.

I had a Albanian friend who looked like a splitting image of Ramsey. My point was, he specifically looks Welsh within the isles. I can't see him as a irishman or a Englishman. I would assume he would be mixed( that doesn't mean he looks mixed, I'm just saying I'm not used to his type in England)
