A chime of purple bells

I really haven't a clue what this attractive little flower* is, but it was quite happily clinging to a wall in the front garden of one of Saltaire's village houses. There's something that appeals to me about the rough stone counterpointing the fragile flowers. Even the shortest errand through the village can delight with little surprises like this. And each time I walk through the village I see something I haven't noticed before.

* Doing a Google search I've found this little Dalmatian Bellflower (Campanula
portenschlagiana
) which looks very similar to me - but I'm not a gardener at all! Perhaps someone can enlighten me.
