==Disk brooches [E]==
British brooches tend to be about 4cm (1½”) ([EWING 2007, : p.61)]<br>
<br>
The use of precious metals to make disc brooches in England reduces during the C10th. Hoards from the late 9th and early 10th contain many more brooches made from precious metals than those from the late 10th and 11th ([HINTON 2005, : p.167)]<br>

With a couple of exceptions English brooches tend to be flat.<br>
