Sutton London Code 40: Lodge Place - parked in designated
disabled person's parking space

Hello,
I have a feeling that I'm in the wrong here - but thought I'd
post anyway. I parked in a designated disabled person's parking
bay this Sunday evening at Lodge Place, Sutton, after 6.30 pm
(there were about 8 bays and almost all were empty).
The signage read:
Disabled badge holders only
(separator)
8 am - 6.30 pm, 3 hours, No return within 2 hours
(separator)
At other times No limit
I took the separator to mean that after 6.30 pm that there was
no limitation on any vehicle to park in this bay, which I
thought was reinforced by the fact that there was a signage
separator above it.
I've attached the PCN notice received. Do I have any case here,
or should I pay the £70 (expensive mistake)?
As a grumble, this part of Sutton is a massive ring road, so you
have to travel the entirety of if if you think you've missed a
legitimate space - making it very hard to find parking on a
Sunday evening (where you'd think roads after 6.30 pm on a
Sunday are mostly free)
Many thanks and kind regards,

Well, sorry to have to say it, but you did not understand what
the sign said. It is for BB holders only, but between 08.30 am
and 6.30 pm they can only park for 3 hours, and must not return
within 2 hours. Outside these hours, BB holders can park for any
period from 6.30pm up to 08.30 am the next day.
The key part of the sign is the top box that together with the
symbols, says "Disabled badge holders only" The boxes below then
qualify what BB holder are allowed to do.
