Euro Car Parks errors on appeal rejections

I've had a postal NTK from Euro Car Parks, which I've appealed on their website.
They've rejected the appeal, stating that (among other things):
"Parking at The Site is limited to 30 minutes. Your vehicle entered at 09:13:33 and exited at 10:21:52 therefore was parked longer than the maximum period allowed."
and included this photo below as "evidence that the maximum stay is 30 minutes.
Both the statement and the photo are incorrect, the signs at this location say the maximum stay is 45 minutes, not 30.
I think the sign may be a generic one, in any case they've at best made a mistake, at worst haven't given proper consideration to my appeal.
I'm putting together my POPLA appeal tonight (to submit tomorrow) can anyone point me in the direction of some wording they've used to successfully raise this on their appeal.
Thanks

England & Wales
Noted on the picture
Does that mean there's no merit in pointing out their error in my POPLA appeal?0 -
I wouldn't even tell anyone to bother with POPLA. Not sure why you are. Not many win, unless you have a killer point like it's a hire/lease car and you haven't said who was driving, or if it was two visits wrongly taken as one.
Sit tight and ignore it until court claim (not joking).PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
