Derbyshire CC Code 01. PCN Lay-by with Double yellow lines and
broken white line

Dear all.
An owner has received a PCN (Attached) for parking in a lay-by
that was separated from the road by double yellow lines but also
white broken lines.

I have attached the location and an image of the location.

Would the road having both road markings invalidate this ticket?
Can you spot anything in the ticket that does not meet
standards? I was surprised by how vague the ticket is.
Location- Rushup edge to the junction it suggests is 2.5 miles.
Also the observed start and end time is identical.
Any advice appreciated.
Thanks

What are the PCN number and VRM.
Yellow lines control verges and it doesn't look like a lay-by.

I have been this way more than a few times !!
Over the years, as more and more visitors visit this area, the
council has restricted more and more of the roadside around
here, and this is no exception. If one looks the other way, one
can see how the bay would have been. It may, indeed still be
like that. For me, the DYLs condemn you, because they apply to
the whole 'road' which includes everything up to the property
line, (the dry stone wall). I don't think the faded and worn
dashed white line would win it, as the DYLs are very clear.

There is nothing in the law or its associated regulations that
mandates observation times. There are two exemptions to these
DYLs, (1) loading/unloading and (2) boarding/alighting
passengers. Unless you tell us more, I doubt either of these
applies.
Locus is of less importance to PCNs served at the roadside to
car or driver as it is assumed you know where you have parked
your car. It could be an issue for a Notice to Owner if the
driver was not the owner.
The road you parked on is the old Mam Tor Road. Mam Tor is
called "Shivering Mountain" and the constant rock falls and the
road falling into the valley below, led to its closure. I first
came this way in the late 70s on a motorbike, (Yamaha XS750)
with a German chap on a Honda CX500, and we climbed up Mam Tor.
The PCN does not have certain mandatory information, but I don't
think you have posted all of it. Errors in the'small print'
could make it void, so post it all up, please.
