He was appointed High Steward of Stratford-on-Avon, and was commissioned a captain of the local militia on 27 April 1813.

However, he died in February 1815, of a fall from his horse while hunting on Killiney Hill in County Dublin. He had no children, so he was succeeded as duke by his cousin Charles Sackville-Germain. His estate of Knole passed to his sister Elizabeth Sackville-West, Countess De La Warr. References
