What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant challenged the rateable value of £145,000 (£550 per m²) as inaccurate, proposing £101,000 (£425 per m²). The Valuation Officer had reduced the assessment to £122,000 (£465 per m²) at the challenge stage. The tribunal allowed the appeal in part, adopting £450 per m² in line with the tribunal's decision for a comparable property at the same building (CHG101195382), which had been determined on the same evidence. This resulted in the assessment being altered to reflect the £450 per m² figure with effect from 1 April 2023.
