Yes, a Beverage antenna is a low to the ground, very long wire receive antenna that is directional and commonly set up on pickets like a fence.
I'm thinking more of the kind of fence that you might see in a manufactured home park where the lot size isn't conducive to a Beverage "installation" (half-wave and up by multiples).
I once stapled a 75 ft long copper wire to the top of a wooden fence fed into an L match. Worked great for a few years. No one ever suspected.
