Can someone identify this plant please, its evergreen and flowers late
May for 4/5 weeks. (It grows to a small bush and can spread about 30"
across and about 2ft high)

We also had the White flower version of the same plant, but that died
off during the harsh winter and I would like to replace the plant
please.

It looks like a cistus

There are a lot of different Cistuses, but this might be Cistus x
purpureus.
