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.

It's a grape vine, but should be sorted out ASAP, cut out any dead
wood and try to tie in the stems to get some shape and structure.
You can summer prune to get rid of unwanted growth.
It's a pity the pictures are so small, I had to save to get them
larger.
It looks as if it's been struggling for a couple of years.
