Thanks for your consistent replies, guys. Really.
No idea about duration of my move. Moving to work abroad. It could be 1 year, it could be 10. I am a teacher so I could even decide to move to yet another country or come back.
Yes, my house which I pay a mortgage on will still be owned by me here. No dependants.
The only sign that is there is the sign that I posted in the Imgur link.
I’ve just drove past my gym area and thought I’d take a pictures of the signs in the dark as it would have been dark in February/early March mornings.

So visible (there to be seen) and quite readable then.
What was the source of lighting for that photo? Was it that well illuminated at the time?
Car’s headlights. I took a picture of the sign next to it.

You're supposed to show how it looks in "natural" lighting conditions. Are trying to scupper any defence you may have by showing all and sundry how visible and readable the signs are?
I agree. I wanted it to be even in situations where there were car headlights, the sign is still pretty unreadable.
I just need a next step, really.
Take a photo in natural conditions like you were told, that's a great next step.
Natural conditions being daylight? I have already uploaded images.
Natural conditions being without the nearby car headlight? I've also uploaded that.
Apologies - I’ve just realised I’ve uploaded the same picture twice. I also took this one.

Not particularly useful but those signs are pretty useless anyway. They fail in that the requirement to bring to the attention of drivers the charge is in minuscule font. They also fail the CoP requirements on signage and as there is no entrance sign to the car park they fail on that point too.
However, as you are dealing with an IPC member, any all appeals will be exercises in futility. There's nothing to stop you appealing, if you are still in time to do so, but it is up to you if you can be bothered. Personally, I would just wait and see if/when they ever bother to issue a county court claim. That is ideally where you would have the best chance of getting this concluded.
It does mean, however, that you will just have to weather a storm of useless but threatening debt collector letters which you can safely ignore. If/when a LoC is received, come back for more advice.
I'm sure some others on here may advise differently. I would say get on with your life and see if the ever progress it further whilst ignoring all the debt recovery steaming pile of nonsense.
Got it. Thanks.
I’ll continue pursuing Jardines to try and get the PCN cancelled.
Will try and weather the anxiety of their letters.
I have 14 days after rejected appeal. So, should take me up to the end of the month.
Thanks again.

The only thing that I am mindful of is the OP's plans to move abroad for an as yet indeterminate period of time, whilst maintaining ownership of a property in the UK. In the worst case scenario, they could return in a few years to find a CCJ, obtained in default.
Will you have some sort of process for receiving and responding to mail issued to your UK address when you move?
Currently, my mail is sent to my parents' address which is where these PCNs were sent; so, yes. I will still have correspondence.
I am currently appealing the latest PCN and will state the infrigments mentioned by
@b789
5th appeal rejected from EPS where I stated all the infringements mentioned by
@b789.
Last hope is for Jardines to intervene. Any way I should go about that?
Agree x 1
