Wild and others v Smith (VO)
Language: English Series: Rating & Valuation Reporter ; 1988 RVR 217-219(3)Publication details: 1988Subject(s): Summary: LT 16 November 1987. Three appeals against an lvc decision ascribing gross value to hereditaments described as ` chalets `. The main argument against the valuation rested on whether the structures should more appropriately be described as ` caravans ` rather than `chalets`. As no rental evidence was available it is important to establish the gross value of these structures, which is derived from the values attributed to caravans or as the valuation officer contends to chalets. It was held that despite the fact that the structures fell into both the definition of a `caravan`, as given by Rating (Caravan Sites) Act 1976 s6 and `chalet" as given by the Oxford English Dictionary, they are in fact chalets because they had no means of moving them and they were permanent structures.| Item type | Current library | Call number | Copy number | Status | Barcode | |
