When officers visited a nearby home they found evidence of cannabis cultivation.
This image, taken by Swindon officers, shows ducting and other equipment discovered in the house.
Sgt David Tippetts said: "There is often a common misconception of cannabis amongst the public and I know many people believe it to be a harmless drug.
"However, cannabis is an illegal drug and those who use and supply it will often be associated with other crimes and this can impact greatly on a community.”
