Crack in garden wall

Hi all, I trimmed back some ivy growing all over my garden wall, and discovered that there is a small crack running vertical in the wall (see photos). Wondering what I should use to repair it please? Thanks!

looks like it needs a movement joint,how long is the wall?.

Thanks. It's about 7 meters long.

daisy12345, good evening.

If it were me, I would do nothing at all at present, to be blunt the crack is minor, simply keep an eye on it.

It's probably not contraction then,not really long enough to need a movement joint, agree with Ken above leave alone for now,or grow some ivy up it

Thanks both. Will leave it for now then. I'm sure the ivy will find it way up pretty quickly!
