What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued the rateable value of £675,000 was unreasonable when compared to similar properties within the same valuation scheme. The tribunal found that whilst rental evidence was limited, comparable assessments within the scheme showed that Perrigo, valued at £42psm, was superior in location and significantly smaller, and that the majority of other assessments in the scheme were valued between £38-40psm. The tribunal determined the subject property should be valued at £645,000 (£40psm) as it appeared out of kilter with other similar properties in the scheme.
