Lou - I had another thought as soon as I sent that first post but didn't have time to edit!
White broom will also make a lovely hedge. It glows in the fading light in late spring. I planted one at the gate of a previous house for exactly that purpose. Not strictly thought of as evergreen, but it does stay green. Dead easy to maintain - thrives on neglect. Just trim when you need to.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

So many fabulous ideas folks, I have so much to think about. I will have to stick pics of all the plants you suggested on a board so I can decide.
White broom though Fairygirl - I didn't know there was such a thing, it sounds wonderful. neglect is what it will get up against that wall :-)
I think it's an underrated plant Lou.

A beautiful climbing jasmine, even if potted with a trellis smells wonderful.
I love jasmine but sadly it refuses to grow in my area.
