Suspected stolen vehicles, caravans and plant machinery were found after police raided a caravan site as part of a major operation.
The site near Moses Gate was raided on as part of Operation Avro, a Greater Manchester wide crackdown on crime that in this case also involved officers from Lancashire, Cheshire and Merseyside Police.
As well as recovering the suspected stolen items, officers were also tackling speeding and dangerous driving all across the borough.
A spokesman for the neighbourhood policing team said: "GMP officers and our drone Unit, supported by Lancashire, Cheshire and Merseyside Police executed a warrant of Hall Lane caravan site today. This visit coincided with a national Rural Crime day of action. Various stolen vehicles, caravans, plant machinery and other items were identified and recovered by police."
