POLICE in Chippenham raided a cannabis factory in the town on Friday morning.
A number of officers raided the house in Heathfield at 11.30am.
The raid came after a tip off and officers acted quickly to secure a warrant and search the premises.
Police are searching for the occupants of the house who were not in when the raid took place.
Chief Inspector for North Wiltshire, Gavin Williams, said: "This is the first of it's kind in Chippenham - it has happened a few times in Swindon but never here.
"We are now urging anyone to come forward with information about the occupants of the house.
"All information will be treated in the strictest confidence."
Anyone with information should contact Chippenham CID on 0845 408 7000, or anonymously, on Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
