What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant challenged the rateable value of the shop property, disputing the zoning method applied and arguing the staffroom was valued inconsistently with neighbouring properties. The tribunal found that the valuation officer had correctly applied the two-zone method in accordance with RICS code of measuring practice, with the staffroom measured through the structural zoning as a non-structural partition. The appeal was allowed in part, with the RV confirmed at £17,500.
