Can anyone categorise my rose?

I've got a rose in my garden and have been trying to work out what pruning it needs. It looks like it depends on whether it's a climber or a hybrid tea etc.
I'm not really sure though. Can anyone help?

It's grown from waist height last autumn to about 6ft.

It's got stiff stems which do need a bit of support to not wobble over the place.

It's been flowering for a couple of months and still has buds.

Is there any other info I could provide?

Can you post a photo?

I can try. The photos don't really show much though. Anything in particular that would be helpful to see?
Or shall I just lop it back 50% and hope for the best?!

Looks like a climber to me - tall and quite narrow.

Thank you. Given how much it's grown since we've been here that would fit. I'll give it a good prune late in Autumn (I think) then.
