The CEO has chosen the wrong contravention and it cannot be changed.
Dear Sir,
PCN *********
I refer to the above and comprehensive photos taken by the CEO which clearly show that the whole of my car was parked on the carriageway and therefore the PCN, which alleges that part of my car was parked other than on the carriageway, has been issued in error and must be cancelled.
Hm, not sure about that. If one looks on GSV, it is obviously there as access to the premises, probably for loading/unloading purposes, therefore is not part of the carriageway.
This 2017 view shows the layout. ALl the later views have vans obscuring the area.

Not a slam-dunk win at London tribunals IMHO.

I visited Wembley yesterday to go to a recording studio, there were no available parking spaces so I parked my vehicle in front of what would appear to be a loading bay for what seems to be a disused premises. Upon returning to my vehicle I discovered I was issued a Penalty Charge Notice for parking with one or more wheels on a footpath or any part of a road that is not a carriageway.
My initial belief is that I am not parked on what would be considered a footpath, as the PCN describes; however, I am uncertain as my vehicle obstructs what would be the natural route for a pedestrian to take. It also is not part of the carriage
I am purely after advice on whether it is worth appealing or accepting that I am in the wrong and paying the discounted rate.
8 Images were provided by the Parking Officer, the last image is my own to show I was not on a pavement, my initial understanding of what the PCN was for.
