    Unfortunately Google Street View isn't going to help. It shows the sign there is a Euro Car Parks sign, but it looks like the image is very old - 2011.

    Maybe go to the council offices and inspect the map in the Off Street Parking Places Order that Castle mentions.

    So did CEL provide:-
    1) Copy of their agreement with the Land owner.
    2) Photos of their signs.

    Doesn't matter now; the case was lost at POPLA and the OP should now plan to win it in court instead, with our assitance, using those photos as evidence and the Off Street parking Places Order mentioned by Castle.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    You await court papers from the CCBC in Northampton and defend yourself in Court

    The claimant has 6 years to issue a court claim

    Collect your evidence by contacting the council about this car park and Chech that your vehicle was in the council section , or that it wasn't, get the council to clarify the areas their signs cover

    Complain to trading standards about being ticketed by a private company on council land
