Police have discovered a cannabis factory near the town centre.

Officers discovered the plants when they searched an industrial unit in Pepper Lane on Saturday night.

The plants were removed yesterday by waste disposal firm Grundon to be destroyed.

A spokesman for Thames Valley Police said she could not confirm how many plants were found in the building.

She added that officers were trying to find out who was renting the business unit.
