The court found the parties intended to be bound only by a formal written tenancy; the written tenancy contained the agreed terms and omitted the disputed special conditions, so no binding oral collateral contract arose. Acceptance of a holding deposit and voluntary repainting did not constitute part performance enforcing the earlier offer. There was no implied contractual covenant obliging the landlord to perform the repainting to the standard alleged; accordingly judgment for the defendant.
