Which cherry tree for pink blossom?

I'd like to plant a few cherry trees in my garden and would like a variety with pink blossom (planting them for show rather than fruit).
I've been looking at photos and love the cherry trees on The Stray in Harrogate. Does anyone know what species these are, or something similar?

Mature pink trees are often Kanzan which was widely planted in the 50s 60s and 70s, to the extent that I remember a Gardener's Question Time panellist referring to it as "Prunus bloody Kanzan"

Grin Kanzan is the one I thought it might be based on my Google searches. Thank you for getting back to me!
