PCN Colindale Retail Park

Hi,

Need some advice.
Got a Parking charge notice yesterday on my motorcycle for not being "parked within correctly within the markings of bay or space".

For starters it was a Sundsy morning at 06:55. No shops in the area open until 11:00
I wasnt there longer than the two hours allowed. A lot less in fact.

The bay.

An end bay separated by a white line ending in the T shape so one would assume that it indicates a bay on both sides. This is the same layout throughout the car park.

The other bay marking does not exist. It is a wall. It is an odd shaped bay as the wall is diagonal yet a car will fit in there no problem and I have seen it many a time.

The rules on their sign is that I am parking within the marked bays. So the right hand side is the white T and the left boundary is the wall.

I think this is the biggest con ever.

What if like to know is
A) do I appeal it and if so the best way
B) shall I ignore it completely

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thank you in advance.
Jake
