What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued the rateable value should be reduced to £15,000 based on the rental value of the property. The tribunal found that while a reduction was justified based on the property's locational disadvantages compared to other properties assessed at £440/m², the appellant failed to provide sufficient evidence to support a reduction to £15,000. Comparable rental evidence from nearby properties supported a base rate of £400/m² rather than the original £440/m², resulting in a tribunal determination of £26,250.
