What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant challenged the rateable value of £140,000 (£50/m²) for a factory, seeking £126,000 (£45/m²). The tribunal found the VO's basket of rental evidence highly persuasive, particularly a comparable property (1 Brooklands Way) let close to the antecedent valuation date at £74.33/m², and properties within the same industrial estate supporting the £50/m² main space price. The tribunal found the appellant's comparable properties were older, had lower eaves heights, and were located further away, making them less comparable. The appeal was dismissed as the existing valuation was reasonable.
