Huge cannabis factory uncovered at Legoland
Police found 50 of the chest-high plants being cultivated under heat lamps and an irrigation system in a bungalow at the park in Windsor.
But theme park bosses say the vacant building is inaccessible to the public and “appears to have been accessed via the Crown Estate” - land belonging to the Queen.
Astonished workers discovered the professional set up while looking for asbestos in what is understood to be derelict staff accommodation yesterday.
A spokeswoman for Legoland said: “Following routine checks, we can confirm that illegal substances were found in a derelict cottage outside of the LEGOLAND Park boundary.
“The building in question is inaccessible to the public and appears to have been accessed via the Crown Estate.
“We have notified Thames Valley Police and we will continue to support their ongoing investigation.”

The cops should have figured this out sooner. I mean all the pieces were there, they just needed to connect them.
