What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought a reduction in the rateable value from £372,500 to £290,000 (£35 per m²), arguing that comparable warehouse properties with similar characteristics supported a lower tone of value. The tribunal found that whilst the appellant's comparable properties were relevant, the respondent's evidence, particularly Prolog at Manton Wood Enterprise Park which was closer in age and construction to the subject property, demonstrated that the adopted rate of £40 per m² was reasonable and not excessive. The appeal was dismissed with the tribunal confirming the rateable value at £330,000.
