Watch as police uncover huge cannabis factory in Mansfield Woodhouse
A total of 38 mature plants - each with a potential worth of £1,000 - were found growing in a specially adapted corner of the warehouse on Thursday after Nottinghamshire Police acted on intelligence.
Nottinghamshire Police's Drug Support Team took just over an hour to completely dismantle the set-up, which included hydroponic lighting, electrical equipment and air filtration systems. The drugs will be incinerated.
