Cannabis Cultivation located

Cannabis Cultivation Warrant – Park Farm, Ashford

As part of ongoing proactive work to tackle organised crime and keep our communities safe, officers from the Neighbourhood Task Force have recently executed a warrant at an address in Park Farm, Ashford.

Following several weeks of intelligence gathering, officers attended 27 Butterside where a large-scale cannabis cultivation was discovered. Inside, over 60 cannabis plants were located along with a fully established growing setup, capable of supporting further cultivation in the future.

Officers have since dismantled the grow, destroyed the plants and equipment, and disrupted the operation—resulting in a significant financial loss to those involved in criminal activity.

During and after the warrant, officers conducted community engagement and reassurance patrols, speaking with residents and providing updates to those affected locally.

This type of activity is not isolated, and proactive enforcement continues across the district. Crucially, this work is heavily reliant on information from the public. We would like to thank those who come forward and assist us—your information plays a vital role in helping us take action.

We hope sharing positive outcomes like this gives the community confidence to continue reporting concerns and engaging with police. Together, we can make our neighbourhoods safer.

If you have information about suspected drug activity or other concerns, please do not hesitate to report it.
