I was wrong. I thought car parking regime around the area near Bristol Temple Meads Station was done by the landowner/landholder. It wasn't.
Most of the signs have now gone since I was last there, but I found one stuck over another sign.
It's County Parking Enforcement Agency, but according to Companies House it was dissolved last December.

The Welcome (entrance) sign offers tariffs - any contract is with Bransby Wilson (not MB) then:
The MB signs have £100 in 'big' but all other terms are in minuscule text and there's nothing to warn a driver about the fake £70 add-on:The PCN sum is the deterrent. Could just as easily be £50. Would make no difference.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Interesting this one does actually mention a collection fee of £70(*). But look at the font size!4 -

Nothing about added fake DRA fees.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

I found this on the Sandhills Facebook parking forum, a recent photo of an Ilfracombe car park.

An odd one from Parking Solutions 24 Ltd. Non-payment can increase the price to a maximum of an odd £130. But it can increase beyond that 'maximum' by an unspecified amount.4

Obviously the BPA didn't pick that up in their signage audit!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.
