There are a number of considerations, one being the fact that the
maximum EIRP in the UK is limited by regulation to 20bBm = 100mW.
However, I suspect that provided you don't cause any interference and
no-one complains that you could get away with most things...
Most high gain antennae are expensive. But if you don't mind buying
from Poland, then have a look on eBay for some apparent bargains:

A couple of 18dBi antennae + 2 access points in bridge mode should be
good enough for several miles in line-of-sight. I have seen reports of
over 17 miles (but in somewhat drier climate than ours!).
What did you have in mind?
Hope this helps

It isn't our's either. It's ours, and likewise yours and theirs.
