The Hon. Mrs. Darner resided at No. 8 Grosvenor Square for three years from 1796 to 1799. The year after she had taken the house, Horace Walpole died leaving her the classic Strawberry Hill.
After resigning Strawberry Hill to Lord Waldegrave, she is known to have subsequently lived at York House, Twickenham, and also had a town house in Park Lane, meaning it is likely that she had the house in Grosvenor Square merely on a short tenancy and gave it up at the end of that period.
No. 8 was occupied around the early 20th century by Lord Amherst.
