No, I'm saying the location is correct.

Ah, Thanks for clarifying, looks like he'd be better off taking the discount then.

Not sure the location on the PCN is correct (although not sure if it's wrong enough to invalidate it either).

The box junction concerned is at the junction of Lea Bridge Road and Church Road.

I can't find any road called Markhouse Corner - there is a box junction at the junction of Lea Bridge Road and Markhouse Road but it's not the one your vehicle stopped in (that's the other one visible in the footage a few metres further ahead).

Markhouse Corner is named after a historic building that used to be there.

There is no right turn except for buses and the right turn exemption wouldn't apply in that layout anyway.


That's interesting. I wonder if it'd be worth a cheeky appeal for incorrect location?  Do WF offer the 50% after appeal?

Only hope is something with paperwork/website.

Hi folks.  My son managed to fall foul of the above. Got caught out by a bus turning right which kept him in the box.

I think he is bang to rights but thought I'd post the PCN here for a possible defence from those who know

Many thanks in advance.
