What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued the rateable value should be reduced to £29,500 based on a zone A rate of £600/m² by reference to comparable neighbouring properties assessed at that rate in the 2010 list and a 40% temporary allowance for tram and road works disruption. The tribunal dismissed the appeal, finding that the zone A price of £700/m² was reasonable based on the rental evidence of the subject property itself and the comparable evidence from neighbouring property number 5 Bull Street, and that a 7.5% temporary allowance (rather than 40%) was appropriate for the works, which had ended by 8 May 2022.
