TWO Oldham men have been jailed after drugs worth £2,000 were recovered from a house in Coldhurst.
Dean Wright (29), of Huddersfield Road, and Carl Atkinson (45), of Cunningham Way, Coldhurst, pleaded guilty to possession with intent to supply Class-A drugs and were sentenced at Manchester Crown Court yesterday.
Wright was jailed for 27 months and Atkinson for 22 months.
