What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued the property should be valued on a turnover approach as a restaurant based on £300,000 turnover using band B (8.5%), seeking £25,500 RV. The tribunal found that following the change of use from a public house to a shop/café, the property should be valued on an overall basis rather than turnover, and adopted the valuation officer's conceded RV of £34,250 at £220/m² as reasonable based on comparable property evidence.
