Another update.
Grown even more so my mum and brother have put higher supports in just now.

Hi! Not been around for a bit but just popping by to say how lovely your garden is :-) I love gardening but I can’t keep on top of it. How long did it take for your wisteria to get to where it is now and how much care needed? I have a lovely laburnum tree and plenty of lilacs and roses but I dont think I could manage a wisteria..
Paul Noel rambling rose opened up even more.

I would recommend a Wisteria. Everyone says they're monsters, and they sort of are, but they're not that hard to control. They usually send out these soft green runners that you just need to clip back with scissors two or three times in the summer. Any runners you want to form a new leader branch, just tie with a cable tie to the structure.
I actually have two Wisteria, one is on the house to hide the drainpipes although it never flowers for some strange reason. Below is a photo of the bigger one which isn't fully open in the photo yet. The older one I have had for maybe 8 years, and the younger one on the archway maybe 6 years. But I keep both in check every summer.

Excuse the general untidiness on some of the photos, I am not actually home yet and these are what my parents have sent so I need to do loads of smartening the place up when I am home at the end of this month.
Those pictures look stunning!!
I'm shocked you havn't got an audrey!!
