Residents only parking Cardiff

Options
Hi all
I have gone through the forum and not found an appeal regarding incorrectly parking in residents only parking area.

Situation : I responded to an emergency concern with my daughter who is a student in Cardiff. We live 5 hour drive away. I arrived at 22:30. Residents parking starts at 0800 until 2200. My daughter has been refused visitor parking through her letting agent.

I saw 0900 as it was dark and I was panicked. I clearly made an error however, the traffic warden told me to appeal it.

Is this what we would call a legitimate parking ticket? Should I just pay it?

I wont be challenging per se but I will explain my situation and pray for compassion. I would appreciate any help here.
