Can I challenge this fine? Parked adjacent to a dropped footway

First seen time: 15:45
Time of issue: 15:45

Reason for fine: parked adjacent to a dropped footway.

I parked in this spot because the yellow lines have been rubbed off so I figured it was okay (I do have photos but can’t post being a user with few posts).


I was parked here for 5 mins so got really unlucky. Any advise or shall I just pay it? Fine is £70 halved if I pay in 14 days.

Thanks in advance :)

    Try getting around in a wheelchair and then see whether it's fine to block dropped kerbs.
