What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant challenged the rateable value of £13,750 (based on £225/m²), proposing £8,500 (£150/m²) and arguing for a 5% allowance for the property's unusual shape (wide and shallow) and full zone A assessment. The tribunal found the rental evidence did not support a reduction, as the existing RV was lower than comparable rents, and the respondent's comparable properties showed consistent assessment at £225/m² across Broadway West. The tribunal rejected the 5% allowance, noting the appellant provided no evidence supporting the claimed disadvantage of zone A assessment.
