I agree... and would even suggest that all three occurrences of the word 'visible' should be removed.

Thanks Gents. Is it worth taking some more pictures? 4 years on, there's still indequate signage and lights, was thinking it may ideal to recreate the scenario and take pictures in the car from a windscreen pov. 

Except one of the gents is a lady.  I'll let you work out which one it is!

Didn't mean to miss you out @Jenni_D but @Gili seemed to be referring to only @Coupon-mad and @KeithP!

Umkomaas

Fair point ... the embedded quotes were collapsed so I didn't see any specific names. (That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it). 😁

Other genders are available. 

Yes, get pictures of the site and (covid regs permitting) to support your case. Also have a look on Google Street View to see if any images show the site, or even just the entrance, at the time of the alleged event. You can use the clock and time slider in GSV to look at images from previous years if the camera car visited the area previously.

The site may have come up here before, so do a forum search for it. Since the Search facility has been "upgraded" it is now pants, so an internet search using the same keywords but adding MSE or moneysavingexpert might give better results.

You could tell us where it is, but we will understand if you don't want the world to know where you live.

This is useful advice, thanks. I doubt it's happened to anyone else on here as it's residential and only really affect my neighbors, one who just paid it right away.

You might be surprised how many residential threads we see here on a regular basis. I'm not saying your particular residence has featured on here before, but it is distinctly possible.

Is/was the actual parking area covered by the terms of a residential lease/AST?

As for GSV, this is the part you will need to use, near the top left of the image.



When you click on the clock icon, a time slider will appear like this.



Click on the dots or drag the big dot to see the image for the date you want, then click on the image so that it changes to the one taken at the time that you want. Click on the clock again to hide the slider.

Get images taken either side of the alleged event, then take at least one pic now to show what has or hasn't changed.

This is wonderful, it shows the same signage small and blocked from where I was parked at rainy evening:
