I'd tend to agree with Janet that it looks like a vine - I'm going
more on the buds in the pics than the leaves. It would help to know
where this plant is. If in south of the country then a vine is a
strong possibility but if in the north then probably a bit early to be
in leaf. I'm in South Wales and my vines are only just opening to
leaves.

I don't think it's a blackberry as Mike suggests and certainly not a
bramble (sorry Mike).

It looks like it needs pruning but if it IS a vine, too late for this
year - a job for the winter months.
