Two men have been arrested after police seized 400 suspected cannabis plants at a property in Whitehaven.
Officers said they made the find this morning after carrying out a drugs warrant at a property in Market Place.
The men aged 30 and 26, were arrested on suspicion of cultivation of cannabis at 8am. They remain in custody.
Detective Inspector Martyn Park said: “The public are likely to see a larger-than-normal police presence around this property as our enquiries continue.
“We take all suspected drugs cultivation seriously and would continue to urge anyone who has any suspicions about any buildings that might be used for illegal purposes to come forward with information.”
