What's this EPIC vine? Help!
I have just moved out of London and have a garden for the first ever time. The garden is mature but unkempt, as the house I bought has been rented out for the last decade. I'm not sure if all the well-established plants are, in fact, meant to be there. This huge, fast growing vine covers the entrance hall. Can anyone help me identify what it is? If it is a weed, how do I remove it?
Any help very gratefully received! Thank you.

It has the look of Actinidia chinensis. Kiwi fruit. But I'm not 100% sure.
Vitis cognetiae another possibility
In the sticks near Peterborough
The red stems do look a bit kiwi-like. These are the only flowers I could find though.
Thanks so much for the help!
After a bit of googling I think it must be a crimson glory vine. I've been trying to find out what it is for weeks! I will prune it back a bit as it certainly is quite vigorous. But I shall look forward to its changing hues as we come in to autumn! Thanks again, really super helpful.
