What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant challenged the rateable value of a workshop and premises on an industrial estate, seeking a reduced valuation of £52,750 based on an end allowance of £18/m2 or through applying various end allowances for layout, floor level differences, access, split site and sloping site. The Valuation Officer reduced the value to £61,500 with a combined end allowance of 22.5%. The sole remaining dispute concerned whether an additional 5% end allowance for lack of toilet facilities was justified. The tribunal found that the combined end allowance of 22.5% fairly and reasonably reflected all the property's disabilities and that a further allowance was not justified, dismissing the appeal.
