Default Small climbing Rose wanted

Looking for a small climbing Rose to cover a 6ft high by 8 ft long West
facing terracotta painted wall. We want repeat flowering and a proper Rose
fragrance would be nice (not Tea).

So far of those we have seen we have liked...
Graham Thomas (yellow)
Generous Gardener (healthy, pink & nicely fragrant) Might clash with the
wall colour.
Tess of the D'Urbervilles (red)
These can either be small climbers or shrubs depending on pruning.

Any other suggestions we can look at?

We want small growth not small flowers. :-)
It's also a Rambler not a climber/tall shrub.
