Plumb was educated at the Royal Grammar School Worcester and Magdalen College, Oxford. He was ordained in 1881.[2] After curacies in West Bromwich and Witney[3] he was a Tutor at St Aidan’s College, Birkenhead, and then Principal of St Stephen's House, Oxford. During this time he was also Chaplain of his old college.[4] From 1904 to 1908 he was Provost of St Ninian's Cathedral, Perth,[5] when he ascended to the Episcopate as the 4th Bishop of St Andrews, Dunkeld and Dunblane.[6] He died in post on 26 November 1930.[7]
