The UPM has both an excellent museum and a wonderful set of publications. They have the archaeological report from Martin's Hundred (although it is a bit expensive).

Just a short note on the spelling of the field. The British spelling is "archaeology" and is widely used in the US as well as in the UK. The American spelling, "archeology", seems to be used only by the US government and Texas. If you do a search on a search engine using the archeology spelling, you will find a lot of the paranormal, and wacky books using that spelling. Forbidden Archeology (a book) is my favorite for an example.
SWA has a great site with archaeology news, tools, and a job board. They also put out a newsletter called "Got Caliche?" that carries archaeology news from all over the world.
