_v[2001], RA 21-29(5)
520 _aLT 12 December 2000. Concerned a disagreement over the rateable value of a cricket club located, along with other leisure facilities, in a recreational field. The cricket club (A) objected to the rateable value of £4,100 assigned to its 'clubhouse, cricket ground and premises'. Proposed this should be reduced to £1.00, on a number of grounds, including the contention that the valuation was inaccurate. The figure was reduced to £3,200. A appealed. Proposed that the clubhouse should be exempt from such payments under Local Government Act 1988 s5 para 15. This provides for exemption for parks, which are freely available for unrestricted use by the public. Alternatively, based on an analysis of the VO's comparables, A proposed that the assessment be reduced to £2,100. Appeal allowed. The rateable value was reduced to £2,100 and the entry in the rating listing amended to 'clubhouse, Galgate Cricket Club'.
