Police Raid Uncovers 800-Plant Cannabis Farm in Mossley

Greater Manchester Police seized approximately 800 cannabis plants during an early morning raid on Stockport Road in Mossley last Sunday. Officers executed the warrant shortly after 7am on April 13, discovering an extensive cannabis cultivation operation inside the property.

The neighbourhood team found multiple drug paraphernalia and growing equipment alongside the plants, all of which were seized. Police also discovered dangerous electrical modifications at the address, with sparks visible as officers made the bypassed wiring safe.

“This was a great find for the local team and I know that there will be plenty more positive results in the coming weeks and months,” said Inspector Rachel Eaton from GMP’s Tameside district. “Cracking down on drugs supply across our district is a key aim of our local neighbourhood teams, and we are committed to removing these illicit products off our streets and punishing those responsible.”

Enquiries remain ongoing as detectives continue their investigation. Police encourage anyone with information about drug activity to contact them via 101 or gmp.police.uk. Anonymous tips can also be submitted to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
