Ok, here's the full string I used:

scp -r /backups/anotherdirectory
admin@111.111.111.111:/backups/anotherdirectory

It worked when I cd'ed into /backups/anotherdirectory and typed:

scp -r * admin@111.111.111.111:/backups/anotherdirectory

It just seems odd that I had to use the second solution; I'm probably
totally overseeing something. Any tips?

Thanks for your help guys.
Matt :)
