Blackadder v Grampian Regional Council
- 1992
- Estates Gazette (1992) 48 EG 119-120; 49 EG 107-111(7) .
LTS 18 March 1992. B served a blight notice on G in respect of her interest in a property. G did not serve a counternotice and were deemed to have acquired B`s interest compulsorily. B sought £113,600 compensation - including temporary loss of profits to a guest house business. G contended that the proper sum was £71,845 and disputed that B ran any business from the property at the relevant time. G also deducted money from the value for essential repairs and vandalism. It was "held" that the valuation was £93,000 at an agreed date. The reason for damage to the property was B leaving it before G took possession, and therefore B should bear that loss. No compensation was payable for loss of business, however B was to be compensated for loss of income due to the blight created by the scheme.
