What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought a revised RV of £19,250 arguing for a 10% allowance for frontage depth (instead of the VO's 6%) and an allowance for masking behind the staircase. The tribunal dismissed the appeal, finding the existing 6% allowance reasonable as no material changes had occurred since a previous list entry, and rejecting the masking allowance as the staircase was towards the back of the shop with glass panelling providing adequate visibility.

Summary generated from the decision text and checked against it. The appellant was Flamingo Fashions, represented.
