New Dawn is a good pale pink climber with HT type flowers, however for a pergola I prefer the multi-flora types - Appleblossom is lovely and would look gorgeous hanging down through the top of a pergola. Both are on the Classicroses website.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Constance Spry ...pink climber... is THE star attraction at Mottisfont , the NT rose collection garden. People queue to have their picture taken seated under it.
They have a French catalogue too and deliver roses to France. I live in France too and have several David Austin roses, including a red climber called Falstaff on that page and Phyllis Bide that Matty mentioned above. I bought it bare rooted from David Austin.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

Thank you RegB
The classicrises website is excellent.
I like Phyllis Bide which is classed as a rambler but is very small - not pink though but delicate - still in flower
Check the website above

Oh bother, that link didn't show the photos, but you should be able to find them in it. Here is Falstaff, wonder if the photo will work.
