P1 controls and private-road restrictions in Putney Heath
Wandsworth Council places Putney Heath in the P1 parking zone. The P1 zone has an operational period of 11am to 12 noon from Monday to Friday (wandsworth.gov.uk).

Wandsworth Council states that CPZ permits are not valid in private roads or housing-estate roads in Putney Heath where those roads operate their own parking regulation scheme. The council also identifies excluded or permit-free developments, explaining that new housing developments of all sizes may be outside a CPZ and that new properties may not be eligible for an on-street parking permit. Wandsworth Council’s parking-controls search identifies excluded addresses, and Parking Permits can be contacted on 020 8871 8871 for an address query.
Putney Heath penalties for parking beyond the permitted control
The council’s page also distinguishes private roads and housing-estate roads, where separate parking regulation schemes may operate instead of CPZ permit rules (wandsworth.gov.uk).
The same council source directs drivers to Parking Permits on 020 8871 8871 when they are unsure whether an address is excluded from the CPZ. That contact relates to permit eligibility and excluded developments rather than publishing a payment or challenge route for a penalty notice. A Putney Heath driver therefore needs to match any notice to the authority and street control printed on the notice before paying or challenging it.
