Neighbour issuing parking tickets!

That's interesting, I'd like to see the source PDF. It's worth noting that private roads can be and usually are highways, even if unadopted. I think my main point is that isn't a simple problem legally and the situation may be counter intuitive.
He has now taken to parking his own car outside his house in the disputed location, dead centre, to stop anyone else parking there.
I believe this is because he has been told he can no longer give out tickets by the Parish Counail.

haha, nice one 
Private roads that are highways are mentioned in that quote already, I'm not sure it is too complicated if the road is adopted - though yeah it does seem counterintuitive that the land is technically within the boundaries of the adjacent properties but that they've not got any rights. The PDF comes from a local council website it seems:

LOL, you HAVE to go and place a parking ticket on the car....

This company can't even get registered keeper details as there is no mention of PoFA and so every ticket is unnenforceable as the keeper is not responsible for any alleged charge. If they are submitting PoFA requests to the DVLA then you should complain to the DVLA.
edit:
Just checked a few examples. Not PoFA compliant. (edit: although more recently they may have improved)

An amateur operation you can just ignore. Until 21st June 2017 they were about to be struck off by Companies House.
Accounts show they company is in serious debt.

And 200 quid for each infringement. Go hard or go home
He is currently standing on the pavement arguing with a council official 
The best part of it is that the council guy parked his car in the disputed spaces
He has now taken him inside to "let me show you the deeds"...
Apparently his house (and a few others in the street, mine too apparently) are "special" meaning we own the road.
It seems this has come to a head because some council official was told to use this road for parking by the Parish, and her unmarked car was ticketed.
It would appear my reporting was simply a timely coincidence. Although the parish council did chase me up for an email reporting the issue on Friday.

*Gets popcorn and a comfy seat*
The council official has been escorted back to his car, and has left.
It all seemed very cordial towards the end. Will report back when I get any more information.

Deeds? Ha!
Deeds are frequently messed up and i've experienced how messy they can get as i have right of way over a private track that's "owned" by 3 people/properties. Also 50% of my neighbours front garden is council/highways "owned".
In your case, there's likely a document somewhere that states the road is in fact council/highways owned that completely trumps your "special" neighbours' deeds. It's more common than it should be.
