No. 10 Downing St.

[ChiefScott]

Does anyone live at Nos. 8 and 12?

Apparently not at No. 8 but see below for No. 12:

Before Walpole took up residence in 1735 the architect, William Kent, linked the two houses together - and created the main rooms. His structure has remained more or less unchanged ever since. Most of the other houses in Downing Street have disappeared
over the years leaving numbers 10 and 11 (the Chancellor of the Exchequer's house) as
the only remnants of Downing's original development. Number 12 (the Whips' Office) was completely rebuilt to a new design on the original site in the early 1960s.
