I'm pretty sure you cannot directly employ someone who lives in
Britain in an American company. For starters it's illegal for
you to employ anyone without a valid working license in the US,
not to mention you can't withhold taxes for Britain.
The solution is either for you to open a UK branch and pay
them locally in Britain which is possible but might expose
you to different regulation and is a PITA to say the least,
or the better solution is to have THEM open a UK company,
pay that company for their services, and let them worry
about paying themselves salary.
From a legal standpoint, you are just paying a vendor which
is of course deductible, and it's 100% legal in both countries.
As far as actually sending the money... depending on amount
the cheapest will probably be international wire transfers.
