A cannabis factory containing about 3,000 plants with an estimated street value of up to £2 million has been discovered by police.

Officers were called to Langar Industrial Estate, off Harby Road, in the Vale of Belvoir, at about 3pm on Tuesday. The factory, on the outskirts of the village, which is on the border of Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire border, has since been dismantled.

Sergeant Chris Jury, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: "When officers entered the unit, they were met with the sight of thousands of plants.

"It was very much a professional set-up that involved the use of high-tech lighting and watering equipment and paraphernalia. The plants are estimated to be worth millions of pounds."

Nobody was at the site when the plants were found and nobody has been arrested in connection with the incident.

Anyone with any information can call police on 101.
