Thanks to everyone for their input. I have spoken to the landowner who has agreed in writing that the charge will be waived. Lesson learned - always read the signs and assume nothing.

Gerry, one reason PPC's patrol is to stop abuse in the car parks.
If the signs can easily be read in the car park, it really is your duty to do so. You cannot even claim you were shopping ?

Suggest you swallow the bullet and pay the £60 before it increases and next time you enter private land make sure you can park there without penalty. Sorry, as much as I hate Parking Eye, you do not have anything to appeal with, you are at liberty to try.

Thank goodness the OP didn't take that bit of advice!

I agree with BM, pay the lower amount and next time pay more respect to Landowners' rights.

If the landowner doesn't want people using the car park out of hours, then he/she should put a bloody gate on the entrance and close it !!

No point in leaving it open and leaving signs unlit if you don't want people using it. Then you wouldn't have to go to the trouble of issuing PCNs.

Oh, wait......
