Ah - fair enough, but that's why it's important to be clear about these things Still quite coastal, but many other trees would probably suit well enough. The soil will be a factor too, so you'd need to see what that would be in terms of pH etc.
Round here [definitely not coastal!] Beech is common, but so is Birch and Rowan [Mountain Ash] - those two are our most common trees. Oak is also common. I don't know how well those would do in the site, but the Rowans need regular water to stay healthy.
The other type of Sorbus is also common round here - Whitebeam. It's a lovely tree - and often grows in that ideal 'tree' shape too, so very attractive. Worth checking to see if it would suit
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....

10m sounds a decent distance to me. I'd also suggest Ginkgo biloba, but there is no need for a fastigiate variety IMO. The regular species is naturally slightly upright. Ginkgo are tough enough to survive several global extinction events, and a nuclear impact at Hiroshima, so it's a fair bet they will prosper in your spot. They are often used as street trees because they can tolerate being surrounded by paving, and aren't stricken with many pests or diseases. The yellow autumn colour is dazzling.
