What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued that the original valuation of £88,000 (£225/m²) was unreasonable and should be reduced to £70,500 (£180/m²). The tribunal found rental evidence from comparable properties on Slough Trade Park, particularly a recent agreement on Building 449 at £180/m², more persuasive than the Valuation Officer's evidence, and determined that an RV of £70,500 based on £180/m² was fair and reasonable.
