I have no grounds to use the Chen caseWhy? The POC of the claim form are woefully inadequate and bring Chan (note correct spelling) right into play. You defend against the POC, Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

Just a few tweaks:
Ropewalk is a proper noun and clearly needs a capital R (3 times).
Para 23 needs the date in it changed to 2024 for obvious reasons.
The start requires your address too:
1. I am XX of ADDRESS and I am the defendant against whom this claim is made...

It was Nuneaton crown court but I never caught the judges name I was abit nervous when I was heading through and was abit rabbit in the headlightsesque.
He went through their defence and how he was unsure how a paralegal from a firm representing the client can do a witness statement that includes all the information without a company representative who knew the area and parking procedures for the area included. He commented about the image they included in their witness statement as it was a google maps image and wasn't clear if it was ok to be included or not but he allowed it into evidence anyway.
They didn't send a rep but did inform the court prior to proceedings they would not be attending.
The judge then discussed my defence and he agreed that a PCN cannot be legal and enforceable without a time spent parked specified and seems as they only had a still of my car both the PCNS are invalid as they cannot prove I was parked there and they cannot prove how long I was there for.1 -
