What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant challenged the £387,500 RV valuation, proposing £170,000 based on a lower unit rate of £15/m² and a 20% split-site allowance. The tribunal found the disputed areas should be 18,313m² (a compromise from the VO's 19,412m² and appellant's 16,075m²), applied the existing £20/m² rate at the lower end of the valuation scheme which the comparables did not persuasively undermine, and rejected the split-site allowance as the interconnected units and established layout did not warrant it. The tribunal reduced the RV to £365,000.
