A total of 177 cannabis plants were seized and a man was arrested by police following a drugs warrant in Kimberley.
The plants, with an estimate street value of £175,000, were found during the warrant at a property in Eastwood Road on Tuesday (September 29).
It comes as part of a crackdown by Nottinghamshire Police on drugs supply across the district, with numerous other cannabis crops seized in recent months.
Following the warrant, a 26-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of production of cannabis and he remains in police custody.
Neighbourhood Policing Sergeant Alison Bryan, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “Today's activity, which was based on community intelligence, is in support of local policing priorities around targeting anti-social behaviour including drug use and supply across the Broxtowe neighbourhood policing area.
"Nottinghamshire Police takes drug-related crime incredibly seriously and we are pleased to have seized a large number of plants in this find.
“It is often said that cannabis production is not a serious crime, but this is simply not true.
“The cultivation of cannabis can often be linked to serious organised crime and other serious offences like human trafficking and modern slavery.
“Drugs can have a devastating impact on our local communities and it is important that we continue to take proactive action against organised criminals who seek to profit from illegal activity.
“We all have a role to play in keeping our local areas safe from drug-related crime which can have a negative impact on our communities and we will continue to pursue those individuals responsible.
“I’d like to reassure members of the public that we will continue to do all we can to disrupt this type of activity and to keep our communities safe.”
The force have also encouraged more people to get in touch on 101 if they believe there is production of drugs in their area.
If you have more information on the cannabis found in Kimberley, call Nottinghamshire Police on 101 quoting incident 272 of September 29.
