The Council has rejected my informal challenge, please advise? https://ibb.co/jzjsN3khttps://ibb.co/0JZVVJhCould I use this in my appeal?https://ibb.co/d5Kgn71

Thank you. Should I add this case into my appeal?"Case reference   2180506536Mr Brockies has attended in person.This PCN was issued for the alleged contravention of being parked in a permit space in Page Street at 2.06pm on 29 September 2018 without displaying a valid permit.I have looked at the CEO's photographs and these show that Mr Brockies’ car was parked in a bay which was signed as being for parking by permit holders only on Event Days between 1pm and 6pm. The Council's evidence shows that 29 September 2018 was an event day.It is not in dispute that there was no valid permit on display in the windscreen of the vehicle. Mr Brockies appeals because he says that the signage was not clear. He says that he had no way of knowing that this was an event day.The Council relies upon CPZ signs alerting motorists to event days. An image is submitted of a CPZ sign which carried a notice at the foot of the sign alerting motorists to an event day on 29 September 2018.CPZ signs alert motorists to single yellow line parking restrictions. A motorist parking on a single yellow line in a CPZ is expected to check CPZ parking sign restrictions and, in so doing, would be aware of event day restrictions. However, a motorist parking in a permit bay is subject to the signed restrictions for the bay which may or may not be the same as CPZ restrictions.The time plate for this bay does not provide motorists with any information about event days. It does not refer the motorist to CPZ signs or to the Council’s website for details of event days. A motorist parking in a permit bay cannot be expected to know where to find details of event days.I therefore find that the signage was not adequate and I allow the appeal for that reason."

Yes, I've included all the pictures. It appears that case AG21049867 is similar to my situation, as there seem to be no signs indicating the restrictions at the point where Pursley Road meets Page Street.It seems that in the case AG1410210A, it was suggested that the permit bay signs on this road might be insufficient, and case 2130378354 appears to indicate: "The Authority say that the street was subject to event day restrictions, because of a match at Saracens rugby club, and that signs warning of the restrictions did not have to be placed in individual streets, but only at the entrances to the restricted zone."

I parked my car in a permit bay that is only enforced on event days and walked a bit further to check the signage for the current event date. However, I found that the sign indicating the event date was covered with white tape.On my way back to my car, I discovered that a traffic warden had already issued me a ticket, leaving me with no opportunity to verify the signage. In hindsight, I regret not taking a photo of the parking sign at that moment. I plan to return to the area to see if the signs now display the event dates or if they remain obscured.Given these circumstances, is it worth appealing the PCN?GSV: https://www.google.com/maps/@51.6054546,-0.2332282,3a,15y,90.87h,91.17t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1soCKRGUM66hvQv5h_VCbOlg!2e0!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205409&entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MDkyNS4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3DImages:https://ibb.co/mGTzjL4https://ibb.co/2gWTW3C
