What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant argued that the closure and subsequent demolition of the Broadmarsh car park and bus station warranted a 20% allowance for disturbance; the Valuation Officer argued for 10%. The tribunal found that the closure negatively affected rental values and hypothetical negotiations in the locality, and awarded a 15% allowance as a reasonable middle ground supported by rental evidence and comparison with a similar nearby property (40-42 Bridlesmiths Gate).
