Help - Photos needed in Keswick

catleugh

Help,
I am trying fight an (in my opinion) an unfair parking fine. I would like a photo of the coach bays, and signage, in Keswicks Lakeside Car Park, but it would mean a twohour drive for me.. Anybody live close enough to take a couple of pictures for me?

Try eBay, that's where I bought mine.

A Penalty Charge Notice" issued by Allerdale Borough Council

I don't need the pics any more. My eight year old wants to climb "Cat Bells" again, so I will be going back to Keswick shortly. Hope they haven't repainted the road markings, or put up some proper signs in the meantime.

i had researched and sussed 'Allerdale'.

Nothing particular known so well worth showing the PCN.

bear in mind for off-street the signs are not covered by Regs. just a general requirement to be clear, sufficiently prominent, not misleading, etc.

Have been back to take some pictures (after taking my 8 year old and her mate up Skiddaw). There are no signs, just (barely legible) road markings. Have appealed, and when I get knocked back, will make a formal appeal. If I am successful, I will post the details here.

The clue is in 'the coach bays'....were you driving a bus?

It would be useful for you to post up the photos of the bays and show us all of the ticket, just in case someone can spot some errors that would mean a definite win.

I have just got a letter off Allerdale Council which more or less says that they are totally in the right, but they are cancelling the Penalty Charge Notice anyway!
I will try to post copies of the PCN, pictures, and correspodence in the next couple of days, and put a link here, just in case it comes in useful for somebody in the future.
If I had never have heard of this website, I would have just paid up and forgotten about it.
Three cheers for Martin Lewis.
