Default Climbing Rose

I have a climbing rose over an arch in our newly aquired garden, think it might be 'high hopes'??

It is very leggy and does not look very happy. I understand from neighbour it is about 5 years old. Any ideas how to help it along - I'm a total rose novice - never had/grown before.

Soil verges on acid. Windy site. 18" soil then rock.
