You are responsible for updating THCH of the change in vehicle details otherwise you maybe be liable for a Parking Notice Charge.

When signing a licence for a parking bay you will be agreeing to pay the weekly charge for the bay and an annual permit charge of £25 for the car park management and administration.

We use virtual permits, which means you do not have a physical permit to display. All permits are issued by Elite Parking Management.

New applications

How do I apply for a new parking bay and permit?

There are three stages:

1. Apply for a parking bay
