  Thanks all!
  Quick q- how deep are its roots going to be?
  
  also, I've since found out that this 'gardener' who moved it from where it was in the front garden, charged £5 a rose bush to move, and excused a £170 bill for 4 hours work because of complications with the depth of roots.
  
  This btw on a women who's retiring due to disability and just wants a garden to enjoy.

  As as others have said. Prune it soak it and move it to a better position it doesn’t look good but roses are tough plants. Hope you can save it.

  I've done a bit more research and looked at google maps.
  
  He took a rose that was doing perfectly fine and stuck it in a narrow flowerbed against a North-East facing wall. What a douchebag
