Maybe try Barton? As for aircraft types, perhaps a Cub or a Chipmunk. If no joy at Barton, maybe 'op over t'Pennines for Cap 10 or Tiger Moth at Sherburn.
Types to avoid? Probably worth being a bit gingerish about Mk XXIV Spitfires, Sea Furies, and the like, at least until you've got a few tailwheel hours. Otherwise, can't think of any of the commonly available taildraggers not to convert on.
