Biography
Biography
After living in central London for some time, he moved to Little Kimble, near Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire. He was a pupil of Sir Reginald Blomfield in 1898, then in 1902 became an assistant to his father for a year before spending a further year in the office of George Frederick Bodley, who had himself been a past pupil of George Gilbert Scott. In 1904 he rejoined his father's practice of Scott & Son in Westminster, London, as his partner. During the thirties he practiced under the name of Scott & Miles, his partner being Charles Thomas Miles. One of his last projects before his death related to works to Maids Moreton Church which is only 3 miles from his grandfather's place of birth in Gawcott, near Buckingham. The majority of his work was ecclesiastical.
