...but surely these lines all connect back to each other again on the
other side of the breaker board? - I wouldn't have though that the
noise was completely "directional"?

Anyway, my biggest improvement was to install an additional earth
(ground) to an external 5ft copper earth rod sunk into damp ground
about 8 ft from where all my gear connects up. Seemed to get rid of a
lot of (admittedly low-level) background hash - seems "blacker"
somehow.
