Drop Kerb Parking Ticket

I managed to get a ticket today from Southwark in London for parking next to a dropped kerb, which I did.
The dropped kerb has a street sign post at the edge of it and a wall behind, so it is clearly redundant as a means of access. Is it worth appealing? Or do I take the £65 (rising to £130) hit?

As we major on private parking tickets here, PePiPoo will be your best bet for council tickets. Register there (but please note that a hotmail address won't work - try using a throwaway gmail account instead if you do have trouble registering) and post a new thread; here's your link:

Have a read through some of the other threads there before you post your own to get the hang of what information they need from you in your opening post - but as a minimum you will need to post redacted photos/scans of all correspondence you've received from the council (both sides, if appropriate) as they need to see all the small print.
PePiPoo has an excellent success record in dealing with council tickets.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
