Possibly Pandorea pandorana with juvenile leaves. The best description of that species I could find, in the app ‘Rainforest Plants of Australia, Rockhampton to Victoria’, states that the leaves are opposite each other, rarely in whorls of three. This plant has leaves in whorls of four. This makes me hesitate.

I support the above tentative identification . In the area I found another stem with leaves intermediate between the pinnate ones photographed and more mature Pandorea pandorana. I could photograph those too but probably no need. I think ,judging by the extent of the network of vines it is a "struggling" rather than juvenile specimen. The closest mature Pandorea pandorana would be about 300 mtrs away. Thanks for steering me in this direction. I did not find any reference to "juvenile" leaves in my key. Lyndall

There is a photo of Pandorea pandorana juvenile leaves in the fact sheet in my app, currently almost finished beta testing and publicly available from the Google Play Store, but not the Apple store, if you type in Plants of South Eastern New South Wales.
