Police have discovered a huge cannabis farm in Croydon town centre made up of several hundred plants.
This is the second large scale, organised cannabis factory within a few months that police have found.
They believe this will “hugely frustrate” criminals operating in Croydon.
Photos shared by police show rows and rows of the plants being grown.
