Thx for you reply.ChatGPt is not helpfull in this case.We dont have any picture of sign inside, but the boat house replied this: "Our club has no involvement in the running of the car park and is merely a user of it.  The car park is owned by our landlord and is managed on their behalf.All the notices in the car park state that vehicles must pay if they are in the car park for more than 15 minutes.  This is also explained in the parking section of Chiswick Regatta's website, at https://www.chiswickregatta.uk/#parking.  If you think that your car was in the car park for less than 15 minutes, I suggest you contact the car park managers.  Their email address is enquiries@qhmsgc.co.uk."So we assume their grace period is 15 minutes and whatever is over must be paid. Not sure if wording would be "charge parking" over 15 minutes or if it matters at all.Another thing to meantioned that the only way to appeal is via website and it must be ticked if the kepper was a driver at that point. It doesnt look like there is post address or email to make an appeal.

Hi There,Driver got a ticket from Civil Enforcement via post for not paying a parking at Car Park at Quintin Hogg Boat House, Chiswick, London, England, W4 3TL.The have cameras on entry which take picture of entry and leaving the car park. Parking was very busy as it was rowing races from which passenger was picked up. Driver didn't plan on parking so stayed in the car while passenger has came and was helped to get all stuff loaded into the car.It took longer then 15 minutes, which apparently, after reading other forums, is the time limit at this privately regulated parking place, which doesn't make sense, how would they make sure someone is not loading or broken down.While writing representation with a little help of chat gpt and was going to ask experts here if this weighty enough to cancel the ticket. Email has been sent to boat house to ask if they have any control over it, no reply yet.Here is a draft letter. Please advise.Thx a lotPS. On entry to private land place there is a sign: See car park sign for terms and condition.********************************************************Dear Sir/Madam,Here is a writing to formally contest the penalty charge notice (PCN) issued against my vehicle, registration number [Vehicle Registration Number], for an alleged contravention on [Date of Alleged Contravention] in the [Location of Alleged Contravention] zone. It is asserted that no contravention occurred for the following reasons:1. **Purpose of Entry and Duration of Stay**:  On the date in question, the vehicle entered the [Location of Alleged Contravention] zone solely for the purpose of loading and unloading goods. The vehicle was not parked or left unattended at any point during this process. Upon completing the loading/unloading activity, the vehicle promptly exited the zone.2. **Compliance with Regulations**:  It is understanding that the relevant regulations governing the [Location of Alleged Contravention] zone permit vehicles to enter for the purpose of loading, unloading, and collection, provided that the vehicle is not left unattended and does not engage in parking. Driver vehicle complied with these conditions fully. No terms or conditions were breached, as there is no prohibition against the described activities within the specified zone.3. **Lack of Evidentiary Basis**:  The issuance of the PCN appears to be based on a misunderstanding of the nature of my vehicle's presence in the zone. Given that the vehicle was not parked and was engaged in permissible activities, there is no legal basis for the contravention claim. I request that you review any available evidence, such as surveillance footage, which will corroborate my account of the events.In light of the above points, respectfully request that the penalty charge notice be revoked.Thank you for your attention to this matter. We look forward to your prompt and favorable response.Yours faithfully,[Your Name]  [Vehicle Registration Number] [ Guests cannot view attachments ]
