Can you confirm whether the 'traffick (sic) wardens' were council traffic wardens (Civil Enforcement Officers) or a Private Parking Company's (PPC) wardens (Parking Chimps)?
If they were CEOs it would be advisable to post this on the Pepipoo site as it has a specialist section dealing with council issued tickets. Here's the Link.
If issued by a PPC, please give details of the PPC to start, after which we can give you further advice.

As above we need to know who gave you this ticketWhen posting a parking issue on MSE do not reveal any information that may enable PPCs to identify you. They DO monitor the forum.
We don't need the following to help you.
Name, Address, PCN Number, Exact Date Of Incident, Date On Invoice, Reg Number, Vehicle Picture, The Time You Entered & Left Car Park, Or The Amount of Time You Overstayed.
