What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued that both properties suffered from poor, fragmented layouts that should attract end allowances for layout disability. For Units 1E and 1G, the tribunal found significant layout disabilities where two separate units had different facing directions and required external access between them, justifying a 5% allowance. For Unit 5 and Unit 10, the tribunal found divided production space with internal walls reduced marketability but, with connecting access points, justified only a 2.5% allowance. Both appeals were allowed in part based on these layout considerations.
