It’s the Lowry theatre/shopping centre in Manchester.Coupon-mad said:Is this in the area of Cavendish Retail park where restaurants back onto it and can load/unload?
If so, one of the restaurant owners has some evidence of that right to load (a letter, I think) and I'm pretty sure we have some photos held by @ParkingMad0 -
Exactly the same signs and scenario as at Cavendish. Your witness evidence about unloading means there's no breach of the terms at all. It's just unfair, predatory ticketing of the restaurants.
Imagine my surprise...PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Any thread/case you’d be able to direct me to in order to back up my defence (albeit I think it’s solid but nothing can ever be too solid) would be greatly appreciated.
If not, thank you for your help, it’s been invaluable.1 -
