No, there's Irish gaelic and Scottish gaelic, which is spoken mostly in
the Western Isles and the Highlands.  In the Lowlands, they spoke Scots
through the later part of period; period Scots is similar to Middle
English (if you can read one, you can generally read the other fairly
easily).

There are fleetingly few documents of any kind written in period
Scottish gaelic.
