What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellants challenged the rateable values of three industrial warehouses on Kingsland Grange on the basis that the Respondent's adopted base rates (£39-£48/m²) were excessive. The tribunal examined comparable lettings on the estate and concluded that the subject hereditaments had been overvalued, finding that appropriate base rates of £29.25-£30/m² better reflected market evidence including lettings at £22.61-£31.88/m². The tribunal allowed the appeals in part, reducing the rateable values to £120,000, £97,500 and £123,000 respectively with effect from 1 April 2017.
