Looks like they (LA) have declared where you park a Special Enforcement Area under S 84 and Schedule 10 Transport Act 2004 making an offence under Section 86 to park opposite a dropped kerb. No need for a an Order and also no requirement to sign as such.
Exceptions are:
where the vehicle is parked outside residential premises by or with the consent (but not consent given for reward) of the occupier of the premises. This exception does not apply in the case of a shared driveway.
where—
(a)the vehicle is being used for the purposes of delivering goods to, or collecting goods from, any premises, or is being loaded from or unloaded to any premises,
(b)the delivery, collection, loading or unloading cannot reasonably be carried out in relation to those premises without the vehicle being parked as mentioned in subsection (1), and
(c)the vehicle is so parked for no longer than is necessary and for no more than 20 minutes.
(a)the driver is prevented from proceeding by circumstances beyond his control or it is necessary for him to stop to avoid an accident, or
(b)the vehicle is stopped, for no longer than is necessary, for the purpose of allowing people to board or alight from it.
If any of the above apply then appeal otherwise pay early to get the reduced rate,
