What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought additional end allowances of 7.5% for poor layout, 7.5% for poor access, and 5% for mixed ages of construction, proposing an RV of £13,750. The tribunal found that the existing 5% allowances for layout and access were fair and adequate, and that the mixed ages of construction was not sufficiently unusual to warrant an additional allowance, particularly where comparable neighbouring properties with similar characteristics had no such allowance. The tribunal dismissed the appeal, confirming the RV at £15,250.
