More info Police raided a former New Look store and found a new "homegrown" enterprise. The UK store brand closed its site in Bangor back in 2023. The landlord has since submitted plans to convert the site close to Bangor Cathedral into smaller retail units after saying they couldn't secure a new retail tenant. But it looks like a different enterprise has taken over the site in recent months. The Gwynedd North community policing team said: "A sophisticated cannabis cultivation has been uncovered by the Clear, Hold, Build team in Bangor. On Tuesday 1st of July 2025, North Wales Police received information suggesting that cannabis was being cultivated at the old New Look site in Bangor complete with lighting, ventilation and enough cannabis plants to start a small forest. "Officers have accessed the address and located a large scale cannabis grow, not exactly the kind of greenery we like to see in Bangor. While we support homegrown businesses, this one went way beyond the legal limit. "Our investigation is ongoing and we would ask that anyone with information comes forward, we are particularly interested in any movements, vehicles or persons entering or exiting the building since April 2025. Information can also be submitted anonymously via CrimeStoppers on 0800 555 111. PC Rylance from the CHB Team said 'We are dedicated to targeting Serious and Organised Crime and will continue to target those who are intent on exploiting vulnerable persons and children.
