I applied for my British citizenship under form AN about seven weeks ago.
Today I received PCN of worth £30 as I was driving in a bus lane.
Do I need to inform the home office?

No. Unlike FPNs, PCNs are harmless and irrelevant for naturalisations. A PCN doesn't result in a criminal record or points on your licence. It is of no interest/concern for the HO. If unpaid, though, a PCN will become a civil debt (for comparison: nonpayment of a FPN can lead to criminal prosecution).
Pay it, and forget it.
