Hundreds of cannabis plants were seized in a single day after two separate raids in Sevenoaks.

The largest haul came in Horton Kirby after police on patrol became suspicious of a locked building in Oakview Stud Farm.

Officers found 650 plants after they gained entry, having found a number of power cables and a water supply entering the buildings on Thursday.

Earlier that day a search warrant had been executed at a home in Colstead, New Ash Green.

Two rooms in the property had been turned into cannabis farms.

Officers took 76 plants from the scene and around 2kg of the Class B drug, which were bagged and ready to sell.

As a result of the searches, police also seized an axe, a knuckle duster, and knives.

There have been no arrests made in relation to either search.

Sevenoaks chief inspector, Jon Kirby, said: "We will continue to actively target people and criminal gangs engaged in the manufacture and supply of drugs, regardless of the scale of the operation.

"These plants, as well the equipment seized here, will all be destroyed.

"There can also be no justification for anyone carrying weapons, such as those seized by my officers.

"We are all too aware of the devastating consequences of knife crime, often at the needless cost of young lives and we remain firmly committed to protecting our communities from the harm it causes.

"Removing these weapons from our streets is an absolute priority and this includes taking a zero tolerance approach, where officers are proactively pursuing and prosecuting those offenders who think it acceptable to carry them."
