Climbing rose recommendation

YorkshireTraveller

I would like to plant a yellow, strong fragranced climbing rose that would grow up the side of our front door. The wall to the side of the door (to which I'd attach a frame) is about one foot wide by eight foot high. The wall is south facing.

I would prefer the rose to flower for as long as possible throughout the year, and have a preference for a cup shaped rather than a rosette shaped flower.

I'd appreciate any help, advice, and recommendations that the Forum can give.
