I live in SE michigan, zone 5, a relatively cold climate. I have a damp back yard with clay soil. I have put up cherry trees and arbor vitaes to try to make a screen.
The cherries died, and the arborvitaes look like they are about to die as well.
How about bamboo?

The bamboo will do so well there you'll wish you never planted it. Seriously, it will do fine at your location.

It sound as if its not what you are planting but the conditions in which you expect the plants to grow. I don't how The North of England compares with SE Michigan. but unless you give plants some positive conditions to grow in most will wither and die. Try to improve the soil, by the addition of good compost and look through web-sites like the Royal Horticutural Society's to find plants and trees that will thrive in that position.
