Default Ivy

I saw an old country house on TV called Eggleston Hall that had ivy growing
up it and I would like it on my house.

I would like on that's fast growing and one that changes colours with the
seasons (red in Autumn) can someone please point me in the right
direction.

Thanks Ben


Thanks to you all, food for thought indeed. I think, in hindsight, perhaps
the ivy is a bad idea as it may damage the wall. I just wanted some colour
on the walls, somewhere for the birds to hide and something that wont
destroy the brickwork.

Thanks again
