What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant contended that a material change of circumstances between 2019 and 2022 - concerning restricted parking and access to the property due to contested use of an access road - had impacted the hypothetical rent. Although the tribunal acknowledged a material change had occurred, it noted that the property had subsequently been let at £16,000 in March 2022, which was higher than the rateable value of £10,750. The tribunal therefore dismissed the appeal, considering that even if a material change had existed, it did not warrant a reduction in the rateable value.
