The house was begun by Lord Mohun in 1707 but abandoned after he was killed in a duel with the Duke of Hamilton in 1712.^[2] Later additions and alterations were made including those to the designs of Sir Hubert Worthington in 1914. Late-19th-century residents of the house included William Taylor Birchenough,^[3] a Macclesfield silk manufacturer and partner in the Macclesfield firm John Birchenough & Son, who was the brother of Sir Henry Birchenough. W.T. Birchenough lived in the house with his wife Jane Birchenough, daughter of Richard Peacock MP and their four children. His youngest son, also William Taylor Birchenough, was a pioneering aviator and test pilot. The house is built in red brick with a stone slate roof. It has two storeys and attic with an E-shaped plan. The garden front has 16 bays.^[1] In the 1960s the hall was given over to Cheshire County Council and became a home for elderly women who were either physically, or mentally disabled. There was a large staff of carers, chefs, domestics and gardeners who looked after the residents and the grounds. In the 1980s it also took in elderly men too. A lot of the local people who lived in Gawsworth village worked at the hall. In the mid-1980s the hall was closed and put up for sale, and after being sold the hall was turned into apartments.^{[citation needed]}
