Now, i dont remmember other example in Britain (I need time that havent for look) but you have lamellar armor is know in merivingian france, and near Germany like you can read in book of M. Martin, Observations sur l´armament de l´epoque mérovingienne précoce.
In late 6th century -7th century, we have Agilulf plaque, of a lombard king, or Isola Rizza dish (lombardic also), where you can see lamellar armor.
You can see alamanicc lamellar armor in model of niederstotzingen, or examples in sarmatians, huns, and visigothics.
mail or lamellar or others armor are difficult to meet, because they was using for generations, or too valuable booty.
Only Byrnie meet is Sutton Hoo by example, and today, everybody say that they had byrnie.
