"Old" English

"Old" English is where English, IN originally stood for many years until flooding in the early 1990s caused the area to
become a flood zone and thus forcing the town to move up hill, literally, on highway 64. 
By causing the town to move, there is now a "ghost town" section of the town on
SR237 (formerly SR37) right before the creek & railroad tracks.  This page will show some pictures and
video of the town before and after the move.  Any media you may have, please contact us (via contact page) and
we will gladly add it.
