    I assume I am to appeal to POPLA with the standard templates?
    I would never try POPLA until landowner complaint has been completely exhausted.
    I have tried but to no avail - went into the shops on site to see if I could ask them to have it cancelled too. I know I have a deadline for POPLA so don't really want to miss that.

    I will draft a POPLA appeal and put it here shortly. Would be really grateful if someone could let me know if I've missed anything from it.

    Pretty much, but online by uploading your Popla appeal choosing OTHER,  no paperwork or form filling, typical categories are 

    No landowner authority 
    Poor and inadequate signage 
    POFA failures 
    No transfer of liability from driver to keeper 
    No keeper liability 
    Any BPA CoP failures 

    Etc
    Just becasue Its been mentioned on another thread, are there any updated wording for these clauses? I drafted one a week ago but i believe the wording is from 2018.

    I am just trying to locate the email for the landowner which is proving quite difficult!

    Nope there's no updated wording because POPLA is so unimportant and people should just write their own appeals, not use templates.  Or adapt the templates to bring the words up to date.

    POPLA really isn't worth much effort.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Thanks - so just to be clear - appeal to POPLA with own template or ignore completely?

    Also - If i am unable to locate the contact details of the retail park, what would be the next suggestion? Contact local councillor etc?

    SOME IDEAS FOR DETERMINING WHO OWNS THE LAND 

    1. Google searches
    2. If a retail park, check on any signage which lists the on-site outlets
    3. Ask retailers on the site if there is a managing agent
    4. Ask retailers on the site to whom do they pay rent
    5. Contact the local authority and ask who pays the non-domestic/business rate for the car park (some councils have a spreadsheet on their website)
    6. Contact the local Valuation Office and ask if they know. They often have a website which might provide the information 
    7. Contact The Land Registry and for around £3 they should be able to provide definitive detail
    8. If you haven't already done so, give us the name of the car park/site/location, we may have seen other cases there. 
    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.

    I've tried Googling - the name of the retail park is Ilford Retail Park
