Nearly 550 cannabis plants have been seized after a raid in Walton.
Surrey Police received information that a flat on the top floor of a tower block was being used as a cannabis farm.
Early on Friday, January 19, officers found a “sophisticated” growing set up.
Temporary Sergeant Will Keen, who led the warrant, said: “This was an intelligence-led warrant that has resulted in a substantial quantity of cannabis being destroyed before it could hit the streets of Surrey.
“We are committed to disrupt the supply of drugs in the county.”
Anyone who suspects that a property in their neighbourhood is being used to grow cannabis is asked to report it to Surrey Police on 101, or to contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
