In 1881, he inherited the practice of John Aloysius Crawley (1834 –-1881). In 1881, he designed Our Lady of Sorrows Church in Bognor Regis and extended St Mary Immaculate Church, Falmouth. He was among the founders, in 1904, of the Catholic Record Society, and was so active on its behalf that the former Archivist of the Holy Roman Church, Cardinal Francis Aidan Gasquet described him as "its prime mover and energy."
