What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant company challenged 146 office unit assessments at 80 Coleman Street, London, on grounds of physical disturbance from building works. The parties reached agreements in principle pre-hearing, reducing the tone from £395/m² to £380/m² and applying 4-8% allowances for building work disturbance on different dates. The tribunal ratified the agreed valuations by spreadsheet submitted at the hearing, allowing the appeals in part as the reductions reflected the temporary impact of the building works.
