Eddie Jones’ side claimed a second successive victory in the inaugural Autumn Nations Cup at Twickenham.
Jonny May scored two excellent first-half tries in quick succession as the Six Nations champions - who routed Georgia 40-0 last weekend - triumphed 18-7 to seal a fourth straight win over Ireland.
England’s defence was ferocious on Saturday, with underwhelming Ireland in danger of being nilled before replacement Jacob Stockdale’s late score.
The win puts England in firm control of Pool A ahead of a meeting with Wales in Llanelli in seven days’ time.
