Default Recommendations for climbing cover?

I've recently clad the oil tank shed in weld mesh - the sheets of 6mm
200x200mm reinforcing mesh used for concrete - and now need to decide
what to plant around the outside of it. The aim is to find decorative
plants that will climb and cover the mesh - one side is in permanent
shade but the rest are sunny. The soil is clay. As a starter I've got a
Dublin Bay rose and Clematis Montana but I'd welcome some suggestions,
ideally for plants that will cover quickly, be decorative and some that
will give a bit of coverage in the winter ... ?

Where are you? you'll get a somewhat greater choice of plants in Land's
End than you will in John o'Groats.
