Parking Ticket For Parking with 2 Wheels Mounted on Pavement

Gtv_24

I'm looking for some advice as to whether anyone has ever won any such appeal at an independent tribunal.

I should make this clear - I was absolutely not obstructing pedestrians, or blocking driveways or anything or anyone basically. The pavement was super wide and I was leaving more than adequate space for all pedestrians to pass including prams, wheelchairs etc... I was also massively reducing the obstruction to road users by parking this way.
The main reason I received it was that there was one of those blue P signs allowing parking with 2 wheels mounted further down the road, the one facing the direction I parked in was showing it was allowed, the one facing the opposite direction saying it wasn't. I did not see this at the time as I came from and left in the opposite direction. I believe those signs are used to indicate a specifc section of a road that parking on the curb isn't allowed.
The issue I had with this and the main grounds for my informal appeal was that there was no similar sign in the opposite direction, therefore anyone coming from, and leaving in that direction, would have no warning of it. This also means it's not clear where the restrictions ends. I believe it's intended to end where there is a bend in the road, with bollards preventing people from physically parking on the curb. However with no sign, it's unclear, and there are cars parked all the way back down that street on the curb. So in theory they should also have tickets, but didn't.
My rejection letter pretty much ignores my point of lack of clear signage, and just focuses on the that fact that technically you can't park in the curb anyway.
But by that logic, you have to give EVERYONE who does it a ticket, even on the road I was parked on. The worst thing is i've actually not obstructed anyone, unlike a lot of people who do and don't get tickets.
Really in two minds about whether to take it further and risk paying the full fee....

You've withheld the information we need in order to advise.  We specialise here in private parking tickets.  If this is a local authority ticket, please close this thread and take your inquiry to https://www.ftla.uk/civil-penalty-charge-notices-(councils-tfl-and-so-on)/ and/or http://forums.pepipoo.com/index.php?showforum=30

If it's a private ticket, please start by showing it to us (front and back with all personal information and the vehicle and PCN numbers redacted but showing all dates).

By that same logic, those that receive a speeding ticket would complain about everyone speeding that didn't get a ticket!

And we still don’t know whether it’s a local authority or private ticket and either way, what is printed on it.

Where did this incident take place? In London?
