Woodgrange Park Cemetery PCN - Horizon Parking
DIR By: R.F
Date: July 31, 2025, 4:19 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
Hello,
New to this forum so would really appreciate any advice you can
share.
We have this PCN issued by Horizon Parking on behalf of
Woodgrange Park Cemetery suggesting the vehicle is causing an
obstruction. Now whilst the cemetery has some bays at the
entrance point, there's no such restrictions elsewhere.
The paperwork suggests an obstruction has taken place. The
picture evidence doesn't suggest an obstruction has taken place
nor does it suggest parking has taken place in a restricted
place.
Is anyone able to advise please? Payment is due tomorrow for the
14 day discounted window.
Pictures attached

Ignore the 14 day discount that they offer which tends to get
called the "mugs discount" on this forum. If you follow the
advice you get here, you won't pay a penny of your hard earned
cash to this company.
Have you had any contact with Horizon or identified yourself as
the driver? If you haven't - DON'T. It's your golden ticket. As
long as they don't know the ID of the driver, they're powerless
to get anything from you.
Once we know if you've made any form of appeal, we can start
attempting to assist you.

Thank you for your response.
No, I haven't had any contact with them identifying myself or
anyone else as the driver. With this, when going through the
appeal form on their portal,they ask "association to the appeal
in question" - on the drop-down list the options are: registered
keeper and driver, registered keeper, the driver, hirer or
lessee, or other.
Am I right in saying "other" is the right option? It's a
mandatory question. Also, can I please ask for advise on what to
include on the appeal - the details and information to provide.
Many thanks

A couple of things to clarify before anyone rushes in to
appeal... In your opening post you say "we" have received a PCN.
Unless the PCN is addressed to a company, there is no "we" - the
notice is addressed to one person, and it is they who must
respond.
Secondly, is the person to whom the PCN is addressed the
registered keeper of the vehicle? By that I mean they have the
car's V5C document in their possession with their details on -
not a lease/finance car etc.
If so, then that person can appeal with the below:
[indent]Dear Sirs,
I have received your Parking Charge Notice (Ref: ________) for
vehicle registration mark ____ ___, in which you allege that the
driver has incurred a parking charge. I note from your
correspondence that you are not seeking to hold me liable as the
registered keeper, under Schedule 4 of the Protection of
Freedoms Act 2012 ("The Act"). You have chosen not to issue a
Notice to Keeper in accordance with The Act, and it is now too
late for you to do so.
There is no obligation for me to name the driver and I will not
be doing so. I am therefore unable to help you further with this
matter, and look forward to your confirmation that the charge
has been cancelled. If you choose to decline this appeal, you
must issue a POPLA code.
Yours,[/indent]
If appealing online, be careful there are no drop down/tick
boxes that cause you to identify who was driving - select
registered keeper only, and keep a close eye on your spam folder
for their response. If they do not respond within 28 days, chase
them.

Excellent, thank you DWMB2.
There is no company, just one person. To the second question,
yes, the person to whom the PCN is addressed is the registered
keeper of the vehicle.
Will use the text listed below for the appeal and follow the
instructions provided. I'll keep you posted on any meaningful
updates.
Thanks once again.

Hello,
Thanks,DWMB2. Got a good result here.
Thank you for your recent correspondence regarding the above
Parking Charge, which we have reviewed.
I can confirm the Parking Charge has now been cancelled and no
further action will be taken in this matter.
Please note that once the Parking Charge is cancelled the
contact details are removed from the Parking Charge and will not
be retained for any purpose or shared with third parties. We
are, however, required to retain images and appeal
correspondence for a period of 2 years by DVLA and 3 years by
the BPA and are not therefore able to delete these from our
system. You can review our privacy policy at

or you can request
that a copy is sent to you in the post by contacting us at the
address below, if you have any queries regarding your data.
Kind regards,
