Leave the rest of it to wither and die ... if you try to remove it using
physical means then the little furry bits of the vine that hook into the
fabric of the building can cause a lot of damage. (Wifey worked for an
architects specialising on old buildings so that's how I found out about
this.)

Once the remnants have dried out completely then they can be pretty easily
removed and should almost brush off with a stiff brush.
