He was called to the Bar (Lincoln's Inn) in 1901. He served as an advocate in the Supreme Court of the Cape Colony, South Africa in 1901 and of the Transvaal, 1903. He was Public Prosecutor of Pretoria, 1902. He was ordained a priest in 1911. He was first a curate at St George's Church, Beckenham and then chaplain of St Edward's, Cambridge, 1913-17.

Plowden-Wardlaw retired to Cambridge in 1953, and died 10 years later. He married, 1904, Edith Hay, second daughter of Richard Frederick Fotheringham Campbell, MP for Ayr Burghs, and had issue. Ivan Clutterbuck recalls Plowden-Wardlaw at Beckenham: "He was an excellent preacher, no doubt due to his legal training. He did not cease demonstrating that the Church of England was a lawful part of the universal Catholic Church and our worship faithfully reflected this." (en)
