PCN for Parking Outside My Home

ThriftyParker

I’ve lived at my home for 12 years and was shocked to find a PCN on my windscreen last week. In all my time living here I don’t think I’ve even seen a parking warden on my street.

I can’t deny that a single yellow line runs down the kerb across the property, and though it’s fairly faded where I’ve been parking, I couldn’t say that the line was broken. It’s a good 50 metres to the signage that applies to the line (Mon-Sat 8am-6pm), and I can’t say that I’ve ever noted its content as I’ve never had an issue in 12 years and as the signage is stationed in front of a business, so I would have assumed it applied to protect the parking spaces reserved for their employees rather than the entire kerb line.

I understand that not much of this is grounds for a proper appeal but as you can imagine I feel a bit aggrieved at getting a PCN for parking outside my own house, and if anyone has an idea of how I can best appeal it (if indeed you think there are any grounds) I’d be very grateful.

Here’s the redacted PCN:

Need to see the signs and lines really.

I’ve taken some pictures of the line from
both sides of the road and of the sign. I’ve also measured and the sign is approximately 45 metres down the road, if that makes a difference.

This is the signage:
