At Pembroke College, he was the first Master to live in the Lodgings. The previous Master's House was converted into undergraduate accommodation in 1928. He was a friend of
Lord Nuffield, which led to the endowment of the Pembroke Mastership. This freed subsequent Masters of Pembroke from the financial need to take the position of Canon at
Gloucester Cathedral, which had been given to the college by
Queen Anne in 1714. As a representative of Pembroke College he was on the governing body of
Abingdon School from 1921 to 1949. ==Publications==
