Parking tickets
Parking tickets can be purchased from the Pay & Display
machines located at various locations within the car parks.
The charges are clearly displayed on each ticket
machine.
When inserting coins into the ticket machine, please ensure the
correct amount has registered on the display before
pushing the green button for the ticket to be dispensed.
You can park for up to seven days in all our car parks.
Buy a ticket in the usual way from the ticket machine. Insert
the correct fee for the number of days parking you need.
Display the ticket clearly in your vehicle.
It is the responsibility of the driver to ensure that the
correct fee has been paid and the ticket is clearly visible from
the outside of the vehicle. If we cannot see the ticket
clearly we may issue a parking fine.

to a maximum of 3 hours free of charge.
- A clock disc must be clearly displayed set at the time of
arrival along with a valid disabled person's badge.
- For stays of over 3 hours the normal charges apply. A
valid ticket must be displayed.
- You may not return to the same car park within one hour of
leaving.
