A huge cannabis farm worth £1 million has been uncovered at a Morecambe house.

Officers from the Neighbourhood Policing Team and Urban Task Force executed a warrant on Euston Road on Tuesday (April 23). Upon entering the property, they found a substantial cannabis grow spread across four floors.

Lancashire Constabulary said the grow is estimated to be worth £1 million. Electricity in the property had been bypassed, so Electricity North West attended to make the area safe before officers began to dismantle the grow.
