Unfortunately, GSV is far too old to show anything useful (2012).

However i did go back to the location and saw that the sign is covered by tree foliage.

If your appeal case is based on no sight of a No Right Turn (NRT) sign, then you'll need to go back and get photos from a driver perspective to support your case.

The other point to make is that the video does not show the NRT sign at all and is another point for any appeal you may submit.

In addition to the above, there may be a 'technical' appeal suggested here, so wait a bit to see what might be suggested. Such appeals are based on mismanagement of the enforcement process and are usually only decided at London Tribunals, so the full PCN penalty is in play, although that is all, there being no other costs or charges.

Ok so, i went back to the location and i was wrong. The sign that i saw is lowered, meaning you can see it, whereas on GSV it is much higher covered by the tree.

In this instance do i have a leg to stand on?

Thought I would clarify my previous post as to how cases are winnable if you have collateral points of appeal, even when the contravention is visible or not. In your case, you may wish to challenge the PCN on multiple counts, 1) there is no contemporaneous image of the vehicle passing any sign, neither the PCN or TfL's video evidence shows any sign being passed, it has not been made out in the PCN paperwork or the supplementary evidence; 2) the wording on the paperwork for the payment period and grounds on page three can be challenged (unless they have updated it). If TfL reject the representation, then sometimes there may be a wording defect in the NOR to strengthen a case. I understand the balance of probabilities test, whether the sign was there on the date, but an ANPR camera is there for a specific purpose to make out the contravention, but in this case it did not. It shows your vehicle making a manoeuvre. If you need the wording to challenge the PCN paperwork let me know, but it's only my layman interpretation and there is no guarantee if it would be accepted.

Ah okay, noted re foliage, so perhaps I might leave that point. Others may write a better representation, so disregard mine if it’s of no use. On page three of the PCN, what does ground three state verbatim? Just so I know whether to use the same wording point in respect to that, as I cannot see that page in your post.

I have drafted representations in a word document, though I presume they will be rejected, there are sometimes elements to challenge in a Notice of Rejection, so it's just a case of waiting to see what they come back with. If you PM email then I can send representation to you.
