The son of Micah Barlow and his wife, Martha Mary Barlow, he was born at Bury in February 1873. He was educated at Harrow School,[1] before going up to University College, Oxford.[2] While studying at Oxford, he made a single appearance in first-class cricket for Oxford University against the Marylebone Cricket Club at Oxford in 1894.[3] Batting twice in the match, he was dismissed in Oxford's first-innings for 3 runs by George Davidson, while in their second-innings he was dismissed for 6 runs by Walter Mead.[4] He did not gain a cricket blue while at Oxford.[5] Barlow later went into business and lived at Scarthwaite Country House at Caton-with-Littledale alongside his wife, Gladys, between 1917 - 26.[1] [6]

He died in January 1936 at Grange-over-Sands, Lancashire.[7]
