Gatwick North Terminal Drop off PCN

Hi all, read a few threads on here similar, this one especially
https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6403536/gatwick-north-terminal-drop-off-pcn-without-stopping
We too got a PCN for Gatwick North drop off.
We entered at 04:06 AM and exited at 04:13 AM. We drove in the direction of the drop off, but veered to the right side, which is a separate lane leading to the Sofitel hotel and car park. We had booked valet/meet and greet parking, and last year this was the location of the drop off. So after driving here, I followed the signs for the valet car park, got the car scanned, parked up, went to the valet reception, only to be told we had the incorrect company and location. They told us to go to the short stay car park, so we left and exited the car park, with the barrier lifting for us. We then went the correct car park and left our car.
Would somebody help with the best way to word this appeal please.
@Coupon-mad I noticed you had helped a few.
Thanks in advance.

The postal notice was a notice to the keeper, so the keeper on the notice appeals as the keeper, no blabbing about who was driving or about the incident itself
If its your name on the V5c log book, you are the Registered keeper, or keeper
Hint, the keeper has no liability, hence using a bespoke airport appeal, same as everyone else3 -

My understanding. They assume the keeper is the driver, but do not supply proof, and a keeper has no liability for this type of PCN.1 -
And your appeal as keeper is based on no legal liability as keeper because its airport land2

Just read the Gatwick Heathrow group thread. The appeal is there. No link, search the forum and ye shall find. No need for individual threads!PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
