Ronnie Tayler, 21, was arrested and later charged with drug supply offences and possession of criminal property, relating to the cash.

Tayler pleaded pleaded guilty to all three offences and has been remanded in custody.

He will appear at Maidstone Crown Court at a later date, which is yet to be confirmed.

A simultaneous raid at the Trenchwood estate on Monday led police to seize a stun gun and several mobile phones.
