What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought reduction of rateable value from £190,000 to £175,000 based on a reduced price per square metre from £430/m² to £395/m² with reference to comparable retail park properties. The tribunal accepted the comparable property evidence, particularly the Burger King property valued at £395/m² in the same locality, and concluded the original valuation was too high. The appeal was allowed and RV was reduced to £175,000.
