Officers carried out a pre-planned drug warrant at a home at Riverside Place at 9.15am on Friday (28th August).
Hampshire Constabulary say the action was taken to help "disrupt a potential distribution and supply chain of cannabis."
Along with the cannabis, which has an approximate street value of £5,600, a number of mobile phones were seized.
A 19-year-old man from Fordingbridge was arrested on suspicion of possession of a Class B drug with the intent to supply.
He's been released under investigation while enquiries continue.
Local neighbourhood policing teams and PCSOs will be patrolling the area, conducting house-to-house enquiries and offering reassurance to the local community.
New Forest North district officer, PC Tom Neal, said:
"We rely upon our communities to contact us and tell us when they have concerns over issues which they feel need police consideration. We’re grateful to the local community who continue to provide key information relating to such activity."
"Following support from our communities, our officers are working hard to ensure we continue to target those people who persist in committing crime and bringing harm to our communities in this way."
