Without unduly distorting your BA, you could think about trying to do some work right now which is particularly textual-cultural-literary. This will be useful practice, and will also mean you are more likely to have suitable writing samples (something which master’s applications in the humanities often require)

If you find you can’t so easily hop from a pure history BA to a pure English master’s course, or simply as an alternative, you can look into interdisciplinary master’s courses of various kinds. These take students from multiple disciplines and let them work across disciplinary boundaries, and they’re often used as a stepping stone to doctoral study in a different discipline (though you should not feel obliged to think about doctoral study at this or any stage).
