Claim Form - Count Court - Parking Eye

HELP PLEASE.
I have received a 'Claim Form' from the County Court Business Centre regarding a parking charge notice which I have not received. They have stated that the notice was issued 06/07/16 for parking on private land in breach of the terms and conditions.
On this particular day my son drove my car with my husband in the passenger seat and me in the rear, he drove the car as a learner driver to go to his 'driving theory test' in Clarence House Newport South Wales.
We pulled into the car park so my son and my husband could change driving places. We arrived early for the test so my son decided to complete a practise test on his phone, as he done this I checked to see how much the car park was on looking at the sign I looked straight at the closing time (arrived at approx. 6.15pm car park closed at 7pm) knowing my son's test would take around an hour I was unable to stay parked in the car park. He finished his practise test and went to the complete his 'real' test, my husband and I left the carpark after approx. 20minutes.
I've not received any letters until this Court 'Claim Form' ordering me to pay £175.00.
What do I do?

Forget what happened on the day. The only way to beat this is on legal grounds.
Please read the NEWBIES thread and pay particular attention to the court stage, plus the link near the top to a thread by bargepole. There you will find a step by step guide to court procedures that you must follow.
It is also worth buying the Parking-Prankster's court guide from his blogspot, that only costs a few quid.
Do not admit who was driving at any point. You should amend your post accordingly. Only ever refer to "the driver."I married my cousin. I had to...I don't have a sister.
