I'm trying to identify the name of a plant I used to have in my previous

Sorry, I have no pictures, but it was in a rockery and supplied great
ground cover. The plant started to flower around late May/June or
perhaps slightly later, I think and it was definately not an aubretia -
the flowers were purple.
Can anyone help please?
Vinca minor (periwinkle)? Google up a picture.

Thank you, but no, its not that (I googled it). It started coming into flower about the time I put my bedding plants out, lasting all summer. I wondered if it was a form of campanula. Incidentally, there is a similar coloured rockery plant, flowering at the moment I've noticed in people's gardens. I particularly liked this one as it was later-flowering.
