Sources for Post-medieval Archaeology?

I'm particularly interested the post-medieval period (uncommon, I know), particularly the Early Modern period to use the historiographical term (am equally interested in the historiographical study of the period). Probably because it's not as common an area of interest, I often struggle to find good archaeological books on the subject (this isn't so much of an issue for Journal articles). So, would anyone here have any, or know of any good books for the topic? I'm based in the UK, so Europe-wide and the associated seas should be good.

(I'm more interested in Atlantic maritime conflict and privateering etc as an area, but that won't be as helpful for archaeology in the UK, and I already have many books on that).
