Small red hip present in photo makes me think that this and the other sighting are Banksia rose, which is probably the most commonly planted climbing rose in Canberra

It is not like the banksia rose growing over from my neighbour’s garden.

I have added photos of leaves and fruit. Hip is about 8-9mm wide and 10-12 mm long with 10-12 seeds, mostly retained sepals 13mm long. I can't find a botanical key, but it seems to match descriptions of Rosa luciae (or lucieae).
