Can you reshare the signage photos, now that Imgur is no longer accessible?
If you are going to transfer liability to yourself, your wife could respond to the Letter of Claim stating that she was not the driver, and providing the name and address for service for the driver (aka you).
Feel free to show us a draft.
Here's a draft letter - all I'm doing is transferring liability, rather than raising any issues with the claim;
Dear Sir/Madam,
I write in response to your Letter Before Claim concerning the above-mentioned Parking Charge Notice (PCN).
As the registered keeper of the vehicle [vehicle registration], I note your correspondence regarding an alleged parking contravention on 11/05/2025 at Powys Street Car Park. However, I am not liable for this charge, as I was not the driver at the material time.
In accordance with Paragraph 5(1)(b) of Schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 (PoFA), I hereby transfer liability to the driver who was in charge of the vehicle on the date in question. The driver's details are as follows:
Name:
Address:
Under PoFA 2012, once the name and address of the driver have been provided, the parking operator must pursue the driver directly and may not continue to hold the keeper liable for the charge.
Please confirm in writing that:
The matter against me, as the keeper, is now closed; and
All future correspondence will be directed to the named driver.
If you intend to proceed despite this transfer of liability, please provide a detailed explanation of your legal basis for doing so. Otherwise, I expect written confirmation that this case is now closed with respect to myself.
Yours,
