Property

Woolway v Mazars LLP [2013] EWCA Civ 368, [2013] All ER (D) 206 (Apr)

The definition of “hereditament” in s 115 of the General Rate Act 1967 was circular in defining a hereditament by reference to its liability for rating and to what was in the rating list. Reference to a “unit of such property” was simply a reference to a “separate item” or rateable property shown in the list and did not assist in defining what the separate item was.
