Parking ticket whilst on business at a company

Just wondering what my rights are here, I'm a gardener and
someone messaged me a few months ago on a job website asking for
a quote for some gardening work at a cinema complex, they sent
me the address and I went there to look around and gather the
quote details, I parked my van in the empty car park, as it was
daytime and the cinema was closed, I spoke to the deputy manager
whilst there to discuss the work to be done. I sent off the
quote (didn't get the job though). I saw the parking signs but
it didn't really cross my mind that I needed to pay to stay
there as I was technically in my mind on business for this
company. Now a few months later I have received a solicitors
letter (letter before claim)
I have reached out to the company (the cinema) in question but
they have said that as there was ample signage there they can't
help me. It didn't occur to me that I would be expected to pay
to park there whilst on business for them, obviously I will from
now on, but is there a way to appeal this? Seems pretty unfair
to me
Thanks

Post up the PCN for viewing front and back
Do not under any circumstances provide driver details. You must
respond to the letter normally within 14=days asking for all
documents they are going to rely on in the event of proceedings.
As a result you will be offered the best advice,

Do you own the van or is it on lease?
