What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought a 15% end allowance to account for disadvantages arising from the loading bay's location close to a school, pedestrian crossing, and limited parking/access on the road. The tribunal found that while HGVs may experience loading difficulties, the property is a small light industrial unit with a forecourt sufficient for the majority of vehicles used for loading and unloading goods. The assessment had been accepted without allowance in previous rating lists, and the tribunal was not persuaded the loading bay location warranted an allowance.

Summary generated from the decision text and checked against it. The appellant was Lost Boys London Ltd, represented.
