If anyone thinks they might know the name is this rose we would be greatly appreciated the plant it’s self is very well established and over 6 ft in height but non climbing

    It looks like one of the David Austen roses 


    If it is grown from a cutting rather than grafted it could be taller than heights stated for grafted plants.

    If you know the owner, you could probably  ask for a hardwood cutting in October, which would be flowering in a couple of years.
     Have a look at Constance Spry. that grows to 10ft.

    I think it's Geoff Hamilton.

    David Austin Roses does them.

    I think it looks like Geoff Hamilton, I had one at my last house, but DA doesn't have any photos on their site at the moment. The shape and the colour are right.

    I have Olivia Rose Hamilton and she is paler than that.
    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
