Dropped kerb on both sides so on the face of it, you look to be totally bang-to-rights, but having the single yellow line by the dropped kerb means there is the possibility of confusion if you parked outside the restriction hours for the yellow line. There also may be an appeal based on the council management of the PCN enforcement process.

So please post-up the PCN, all sides, with nothing redacted. Also don't be in a huge rush to pay as others may yet comment.

that's the spot! pcn attached here

says cycle track but alley to the kerb is also no cycling

Yeah, but what about pedestrians, people in wheel chairs or with prams and buggys ? Frankly I think you'll struggle with this but you could try this as an informal challenge : -

Dear Sirs

Re PCN <number> dated <dd/mm/yy> served at Peter Street, Soho

I refute responsibility for the PCN above, on the grounds that I parked outside the restriction hours for the yellow line. A motorist is surely able to rely on the carriageway markings when deciding whether to park or not. Whilst I am aware of the parking restriction of dropped footways, it seemed to me that this would not apply outside the yellow line restrictions. I therefore request that the PCN be cancelled.

Yours faithfully
