Even if you split tickets, you are still protected if you miss a later train owing the delay of an earlier train - this is written in the National Rail Conditions of Carriage, and also in the guidance given to rail staff (aka The Manual). (You may however encounter rail staff who are unaware of this, so be prepared to politely stand your ground.)
The only rule with split tickets is that the train must call at the station where you split.
