DCBL - CCJ - Set aside? Advice greatly needed

Hi all,
I'd appreciate any help or advice you can give!
I have been forwarded a Notice of Debt Recovery from my previous address (by ex-partner) around 2 weeks ago. The notice is from DCBL and quotes a CCJ number!
The Notice of Debt is dated 18/09/18 and I've found out that a CCJ 'judgement in default' was issued 01/08/18 - I guess because I didn't defend a CCJ I didn't know about. I'm trying to sort it out asap and I've been looking into a 'set aside' but am not sure how to present it on the N244 form/ format for witness statement and how much detail is required - hence my visit to the forum.
The alleged debt is from Gladstone Solicitors/Parking Control Management - so I'm guessing it's for a parking fine. PCM seem to be a private parking company.
I'm very worried about the CCJ part (as well as the cost) £267.15 'in relation to the CCJ' plus a further £75.00 + vat 'admin' from DCBL.
I emailed DCBL explaining I've only just been made aware and had no response and I'm reluctant to call them at this stage.
As I say, I have started looking in to a 'set aside' to remove the CCJ. And deal with the parking fine afterwards if need be.
The reason I moved from the registered address back in Sept/October 2017 - was to move back to my parent's house to help care for my mother who was very sick and underwent intensive treatment for 8-9months. During that time my relationship broke down with my partner & I'm still at the parents now - however my car is still registered to the old address because there was so much going on I forgot to do it.
Also, I don't have any bills registered in my name at my parents - because it's their house. However I do have bank statements.
There are hospital records for my mothers treatment etc - should that be included with my case on the N244 form?
And do you think I have a case for a 'set aside'?
My ex and I are now discussing selling the house (previous address) which would mean me applying for a mortgage for a new home -and a CCJ might affect that. The CCJ seems very excessive and very unfair. It's all a bit of a mess at the moment to be honest - and an over-zealous debt collector/bailiff is the last thing I need..
Yours hopefully, J
PS I hope I've posted this in the right place.. 1st post
