Could you please help identify this vine?

It's grwon to about 7 ffot but i have traced it back to two roots and have pulled it away from hedge for now.

Neighbour thinks its a grape but i dont. any ideas? keep or chop? thank you all in advance Ron |

I don't think it's particularly invasive, and it's a UK native. If it were me, I'd keep it, and only get rid of it if it were being a nuisance. It's in the same family as cucumber ;-) You'll only get berries if you have both a male and a female plant -- Kay |

If the berries do set you'll be pulling up seedlings all over, and also note it's moderately poisonous. Anthony |
