Born in 1833,[1] he was educated at Exeter College, Oxford[2] and ordained in 1857.[3] After a curacy in Wilton he was rector of Wishford Magna from 1863. Appointed a chaplain to George Moberly, Bishop of Salisbury,[4] in 1870, the following year he became vicar of Potterne. He was rector of Poulshot from 1891 to 1905[5] and a Residentiary Canon at Salisbury Cathedral from 1894.[6]

During his incumbency at Poulshot, where the church was some distance from the village, he instigated the provision of a chapel-of-ease which was built in 1897 on land adjacent to his rectory.[5]

He died on 28 June 1924.[7][8]
