We really need to see a photo of the board that shows the conditions of use of the car park.
Hi,
I wasn't able to get a photo of the board, but found a couple on line taken within the last year, and it exactly as I remember it. Hope that helps
It's the small print on the notice boards that needs to be reviewed and it's just not visible on these photos.

Long time lurker here since the PepiPoo days.
I'm no expert on these things, but going purely by Google Maps, I suspect the issue may be that you were parked in the protected wheelchair access area that forms part of the adjacent disabled bay. I dunno if that makes any actual difference to whether the ticket is valid or not though!

Hi,
I took my family to St Ives last weekend to visit the Tate St Ives Gallery, the beach and harbour. There was hardly any parking anywhere, so after looking around for a while, I found a space to park in Barnoon car park, see below
(https://i.postimg.cc/CBThcd8Q/St-Ives.png) (https://postimg.cc/CBThcd8Q)
The space was over a yellow hatched box, which I believed had been overdrawn, as it was clear it was only there to prevent people parking across the pedestrian access way. I ensured I was well clear of this. I then proceeded to pay for 2 hours' parking time.
On my return, the parking attendants had stuck a PCN on my windscreen.
I have till friday 28/08/2026 to pay the reduced fine of £35 or appeal for PCN to be cancelled. I just wanted to get some advice from this forum before appealing.
Given than the pedestrian access was not blocked, and there was no signage prohibiting parking in the space where I was, how do I go about appealing this fine given I paid for the parking time?
Any help given would be much appreciated.
Regards
CI
