What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant argued that substantial land should be removed from the assessment as it was required for access, and that the value should be reduced from £34/m² to £27.50/m². The tribunal found that while the comparable evidence supported a price of £27.50/m² (rather than the listed £34/m²), the disputed land was demonstrably used for storage and parking and should not be removed. The assessment was therefore reduced to £43,500 RV based on £27.50/m² with all land retained.
