What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant challenged the rateable value of a co-op superstore with filling station, arguing for a reduced tone of £145/m2 and a lower valuation of the portable building. The tribunal accepted the appellant's valuation of the portable building (£2,244 instead of £8,000) based on the demonstrated calculation using the VOA cost guide and statutory decapitalisation rate, but upheld the £165/m2 tone as reasonable when compared to similar stores, particularly having regard to the benefit of the integrated petrol station. The revised RV of £440,000 reflected the lower portable building value.
