Born at Marylebone in October 1894, Lee made his debut in first-class cricket for the Slow Bowlers in the Slow Bowlers v Fast Bowlers fixture of 1842 at Lord's.[1] He played two further first-class fixtures over the following 18 years, for the Surrey Club against the Marylebone Cricket Club in 1852 at Lord's,[1] and for the Gentlemen of Marylebone Cricket Club against the Gentlemen of Kent in 1860 at Canterbury.[1] He took just one wicket across his three first-class matches, that of Jennings Davison in the Gentlemen of Marylebone Cricket Club v Gentlemen of Kent fixture.[2] He had a more substantial impact as a first-class cricket umpire, standing in 44 matches between 1857–1876.[3] He died at St John's Wood in October 1894.
