Hi there,
first post so apologies if I haven't given all the info for advice 16/10/18 @ 19.58 I parked my car on frithville gardens in London on a single yellow line. Upon my return I found a PCN on the windscreen. the offence is 01: Parked in a restricted street during prescribed hours. I am not from London, but I looked around and there was no signage informing me that I could not park there. See below links images showing no signage. https://www.dropbox.com/s/939jzkwt4h9f6ql/IMG_5904.JPG?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/k22kohsdz5clvni/IMG_5905.JPG?dl=0 Have I got a case here due to lack of signage, more importantly how would I have known? Thanks I advance for any guidance. Rgds Oz |

Post the PCN please and link to location on streetview.
Signage is present, the single yellow line. No post signage and in London probably means you were in a Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ) |

I think you need to get up to speed on CPZs (Controlled Parking Zones).
Check where you parked and the resrictions on the map here (assuming Frithville Gardens in Shepherd's Bush) https://www.lbhf.gov.uk/sites/default/files...and_charges.pdf There should be signs at trhe boundary of the zone where you entered it. |

Thank you
I assume in that case it will prove difficult to contest? |
