PCN Single Yellow Line

Hello guys,
I parked on a single yellow line at Tunnel Avenue which is at Greenwich, and I received a fine from Royal Greenwich Council, there used to be no yellow line there and I was rushing so I didn’t check before I left.
As for the evidence they provided it was just photos of the car and no signage was provided.
Is there any way I could appeal this considering no signage is shown in the evidence?
Thank you.

As we major on private parking tickets here, Free Traffic Legal Advice (FTLA) forum will be your best bet for council penalty charges. Register there but please note that a Hotmail address may not work - try using a throwaway Gmail account instead if you do have trouble registering, and post a new thread; here's your link:Read the sticky 'Read this first before posting your case' as well as reading through some of the other threads there ahead of posting your own details, 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, and possibly a Google Street View link.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. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

Looking on Streetview Tunnel Ave seems to have absolutely no signage, other than this single plate at one end. And that is installed in front of a DOUBLE yellowed stretch, which is incompatible and confusing.It isn't a Controlled Zone, so unless you can spot another sign, I would agree the signage is non-existent.Appeal on lack of signage and use the magic words "the onus is on the council to make any restrictions clear".The lines are in poor condition generally as well, with some of it covered in soil buildup.1 -
