This sweet climbing rose is peeking over the fence. What do you think might be it's ID? Thank You!

Very pretty. I wonder if it is Eden?

It reminds of a David Austin type.

I saw this rose again yesterday and got some better pics. Any ideas?

Reminds me of heritage. Could it possibly be madame Alfred carriere?

Definitely not MAC. Here's one I take care of at the Garden where I volunteer:

The blooms on MAC are smaller, and lighter in color.

I've read that MAC grows well on a north wall and blooms in the shade which very few climbing roses do.

Could it be Wedgwood Rose--I looked it up in the David Austin. Form similar but it is soft pink in the book. Medium strong fruity. Similar to your first picture.

Thank you the suggestions...so far I think it is most similar to Heritage as I look through the 2019 catalog. Wedgewood Rose is similar in form, but the colors are lighter on the outside and pinker on the inside rather than all the same color. Even Heritage is a bit different pink tone. I may just find the owner and see if they know what is growing along their back fence!

ID found! A Shropshire Lad!

Not only is it lovely and fragrant, but also isn't thorny.

Nice! I had no idea it was low thorn.

I have one, it's not thorny, I wouldn't say it's a Wedgewood if I read this thread earlier. Major difference between the two.
