A 35-year-old woman and a 22-year-old man were arrested at the scene on suspicion of possession of a Class B drug with intent to supply.

They have since been released on bail pending further enquiries.

At the same time, officers executed another warrant under the Misuse of Drugs Act at a nearby property, where they discovered Class C drugs in the form of anabolic steroids.

PC Sam Graham, who organised Thursday's warrants, said: "The supply and dealing of drugs has a massive effect on everyone in our local communities and its links to organised crime have been proven.

"We invest a significant amount of time and resources into tackling this issue and I would encourage anyone with concerns or suspicions about drug dealing in their local area to get in touch."
