What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought to reduce the Zone A price per m2 from £1,400 to £700-850 per m2, citing rental evidence including a new letting at 10 Douglas Way at £714-731 per m2. The Valuation Officer had reduced the price to £950 per m2. The tribunal dismissed the appeals, finding that £950 per m2 was reasonable and consistent with agreed valuations for adjacent malls within Eldon Square Shopping Centre, given the central location with good footfall and access to public facilities via an escalator.
