What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellants argued that the zone A price per square metre should be reduced from £850/m² to £750/m², citing rental evidence from 32 Chapel Market at £746/m². The Tribunal considered the rental evidence from three Chapel Market properties (32, 38, and 61 Chapel Market) agreed by the parties at £746/m², £848/m², and £964/m² respectively. The Tribunal found that £850/m² was reasonable as it properly reflected the basket of rental evidence available at the valuation date, and the appellants had insufficient grounds to discount the higher comparative rents. The appeals were dismissed.
