What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued that the hard surfaced fenced land area of 5,528m2 included in the assessment should be reduced to 4,172m2 to account for areas required solely for vehicle access and circulation. The Tribunal found persuasive evidence from comparable industrial properties showing that other valuers had removed or reduced land areas for similar access and operational purposes, and concluded that it was unreasonable to include the full land area in the assessment without making such an allowance. The appeal was allowed and the RV reduced to £86,000 with effect from 5 September 2019.
