During a search of the premises, officers found chemicals and evidence of drug production.

Neighbouring homes had to be evacuated and a huge cordon was put in place while specialist police and firefighters assessed the scene.

They remained there for some time to allow for the safe removal and disposal of the substances and so a forensic probe of the property could be carried out.
