Monkey puzzle tree

What is a good situation to plant a monkey puzzle tree?.
My mother gave me about seven years ago, thinking of it as a small-to medium
sized tree and not realsiing they grown to 60 feet. I put it into a very
large (about 4ft high) clay pot, partly to restrict its growth and partly
because I did not trust it to survive in the wet conditions that predominate
in my garden. Gunnera, bamboo and ferns thrive in my garden.
Might one survive
ok on a level windy site, which is not a seaside location?.
I get a fair bit of wind at times and am about 2-3 miles from the sea. Mine
has done quite well where it is.
