The building is now made up of three properties, Pound House, Weavers Cottage and Gaythorne. They have been built in three distinctive phases, the first two phases in the first third of the 17th century. A five bay range running north south was built in the period 1600-1610. A cross wing was built to the southern end at right angles, probably in the 1630s. Possibly during the late 17th or early 18th centuries, the main range was extended by two unequal bays including a stack at the northern end. (1)
