Default Windy situation - evergreens

I've just moved house (North Midlands). The neighbours say the front is
windy - it faces south. The soil is lime-free. I'm thinking of planting
the following evergreen shrubs:

Pieris
Viburnum Davidii
Photinia
Laurel

and:

Lavatera "Barnsley" (is this a perennial?)

Are they likely to thrive or even survive?
Any other evergreen recommendations? They need to be 5 feet tall at least.
