Separate receiving antennae?

This is something that Spike has recommended, so perhaps a
couple of loops at the bottom of the garden well away from
the noise-inducing consumer electronics in this row of houses.

When I, with the right moral fibre to get something that
I wanted, took the Morse test at Portishead (Highbridge)
Radio in 1983, and then had a guided tour of the station,
the operators had a 32-position rotary switch to select
one of many receiving aerials pointed to all corners
of the globe.

I wonder if these would have been Wullenwebers / Elephant Cages,
or somewhere a field of rhombics.

What's the recommendation for remote RX antennae, loops or a single whip?

I prefer 14 element yagi's.

We don't have the open prairie as in Yankland. Here in Britland all
land is owned by somebody and usually parcelled out in small lots,
about the size of a Yank double garage.

Actually in Brit, all land is owned by the cancer of the crown and
those who think that they are homeowners only hold the property
"in fee simple".
