What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellants argued for a reduction to £30/m² for the workshop (RV £68,500) and £27.50/m² for the factory (RV £123,000). The tribunal found that the established rental tone for comparable industrial properties in Halesowen and Cradley Heath, drawn from rental evidence and settlement agreements, consistently fell within £42.50/m² to £52.12/m². The tribunal concluded that the original £45/m² rate was fair and reasonable, and that the appellant's evidence tied to more remote and inferior properties was not persuasive.
