Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Bromley Council, CODE 62, parked with one or more wheels over footpath, Moorfield Road Orpington, 1January 25

Hi there
I received a Notice to owner last week, informing me of a contravention code 62, that was served on 1st January 2025.
It is clear that from the photographic evidence, that my tyres are just on the curb.
To note, when I received the letter last week it was the first I had heard of the contravention. Even though you can see that a ticket has been placed underneath the windscreen wiper, when I drove the car away that day about 5 hours later, there was NO ticket on the windscreen.
Other observations:
I was really careful to park just a little bit on the curb - there were vehicles parked on the other side at the time I parked, and I wanted to make sure I left enough space for cars to pass and for pedestrians and wheelchairs to be able to access the path.
I live in Liverpool, and was visiting a friend. I had not heard of this regional law before preventing me from parking on the curb. Not that I do, but here in Liverpool there is a culture of people parking on paths.
I am not sure what to do. If I had known about it prior to the letter arriving, as in if the ticket was still on my windscreen when I collected the car I assume I might have been given the opportunity to pay half the £110 penalty charge?
Any thoughts on how I could respond / deal with the matter?
Thanks in advance
