Location error on NIP

Hello.
On 22/8/25 I received a NIP informing me that I was speeding at
43mph in a 30mph zone. I remember driving that road and I can
only assume that I thought I was in a 40mph zone and made a
genuine mistake. I am not a fast driver. I believe I was caught
by a manual police speed camera rather than a yellow box camera
but interestingly they wrote the incorrect road name on the
Notice.
They have on the notice 'A25 GODSTONE ROAD, BLETCHINGLEY' and
'7567 - Site Location Code'. The Godstone Road turns into High
Street but I was photographed at the other end of the High
Street, about 700m along the road from the end of Godstone Road.
Does this make any difference? I have to fill in the NIP form
stating I was the driver on that day but can I contest this for
them to hopefully drop the intended prosecution because of the
location error?
Thank you
