What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellants argued that their properties' rateable values did not reflect the opening of Rushden Lakes Shopping Centre in July 2017 and its subsequent expansion in June 2019, which had diverted footfall and revenue away from Wellingborough town centre. The tribunal, following a previous decision by Mr Levy regarding Kettering and Corby, determined that Wellingborough fell within the same locality as Rushden Lakes and agreed to a 10% reduction in the rateable values, effective 28 June 2019, as the material change of circumstances had been established and the material date was post-extension.
