What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellants contended that the unadjusted rate (UAR) of £1,100/m² applied to both subject properties was excessive and should be reduced to £950/m². The Tribunal found that whilst the rental evidence was not persuasive on its own, the subject properties at 23 Savile Row were superior in quality to the comparable properties cited, featuring distinctive architecture and design that justified the higher rate. The Tribunal was satisfied that the existing assessments of £685,000, £720,000, and £1,690,000 were not unreasonable.
