conifers behind them last year and they are doing great

Hi All

In answer to a recent post on hedge alternatives, I was directed towards
Escallonia and Pyracantha (along with laurel).
The question is will these survive in the following location:

Swanland Village west of Hull.
At the top of a Hill but protected by one row of bungalows to the north.
Gets quite cold and snowy in winter due to exposure
Alongside a public path - so some pedestrian traffic alongside


TIA
