Is it worth fighting this at all?

Well, it could be, but you haven't told us enough yet. So have a read of this and update your thread accordingly.

Their sole evidence is a CCTV video. Have you looked at this yet ?

Title: Southwark Council PCN - 52m: Failing to comply with a prohibition on certain vehicle types - Goldsmith Road Junction

Hello!

On Tuesday I received a PCN for contravention 52m failing to comply with a prohibition on certain types of vehicles (motor vehicles) at Goldsmith road junction meeting House lane in Southwark.

On the night of the infraction I was looking for somewhere to park and swear I did not notice the sign leading up to the junction (3rd photo). This could've been due to the size and the low visibility at the time, part of me wants to believe that it wasn't actually present at the time. I know I'm an idiot for continuing when I turned but there was a car behind me and I had already committed.
