It is one of the blackberries but there are at least three species in the Southern Highlands botanical division. Anglocandicans can be differentiated from the others in that the habit is high arching. Otherwise you need flowers to say which it is.

Thanks Betty
This specimen was high arching, as seem to be most along the river.
