You can appeal if the signage is inadequate or confusing.
Normally signs can be on entry into an area or next to the parking bay which also has to be properly marked out. There is rules on how these have to be provided so if you can show that you entered the area where no signs were provided or missing on the bay you parked you should win.
It costs nothing to appeal and stops the clock on the ticket so will still recieve the reduction if you appeal in time.
I would also add that due to the council introduction of the permit parking local residents have been parking on your private land leaving you to park elsewhere away from your residence.
They could use there discretion and let you off with the ticket on these grounds alone.
I have appealed all my tickets and have been more successful than not so go for it
