What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought a reduction in the rateable value to £27,250 based on comparable rental evidence suggesting an unadjusted rate of £22/m². The tribunal considered rental evidence from comparable properties on Fen Road and other locations, and found that while the rental evidence showed variation, the original unadjusted rate of £25.41/m² was at the upper end of the range for an older property. The tribunal determined that the rate should be reduced to £24.75/m², resulting in a rateable value of £30,250.
