Is there actual video evidence or more pictures? Those on the PCN and on the TFL website don't actually show the contravention.
TfL are in the IT Dark Ages, and don't put their videos on-line, you have to request it from them, and they send it out as a DVD. They normally freeze enforcement then, for about a fortnight. They will automatically restart the clock after than so you must be proactive and check for the DVD before the fortnight runs out, and tell them if it hasn't arrived.

Thank you for your reply, I'll search as advised.

Two clear "No Right Turn" signs that you seem to have ignored.
We've had a recent thread on this location for the exact same thing; driver wanted to turn right at the traffic lights but its NRT there so then turned right after the crossroads. GSV shows the signs have been there for many years now.
I'm not sure how the thread turned out, but you can search the London Tribunals statutory register using the location as your search argument with a date range, (try the last two years). However, I can't see a win here, I'm afraid. There may be a 'technical' argument based on Greenwich mismanagement of the enforcement process, so wait a bit, but don't miss any deadlines on the PCN.

Hello. It was getting dark outside when I was driving in this area I’m not familiar with and I didn’t notice the ‘ahead only’ sign. Before this restriction I did notice a sign ‘no right turn except buses’, so I’ve passed that one and thought I’m ok to turn now since I’m past the junction. Turns out even past the junction you still can’t turn right just yet. Could you please help me check if there’s any way out of this or if I should pay the reduced penalty?
Many thanks for your help.
