Middleton was born in Leeds in May 1911, the son of Henry Dubs Middleton and Jane Dorothy Elizabeth Middleton (née Berney), daughter of Sir Henry Hanson Berney, 9th Baronet.[1][2] He was educated at Charterhouse School, before going up to University College, Oxford.[3] While studying at Oxford, he played first-class cricket for Oxford University in 1933, making four appearances.[4] He scored 128 runs in his four matches, at an average of 21.33 and a high score of 44.[5] With his right-arm medium pace bowling, he took four wickets with best figures of 3 for 60.[6]
Middleton was an Oxford Blue and champion golfer, winning the St Andrews Foursomes Cup at The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews in the early 1930s.[7][8] Middleton died in Scotland in September 1984 at Southend, Argyll.[1] Other members of Middleton's family who were "well known" sportsmen include his cousin, Robert Carrington Middleton (1875-1916) who reportedly was also born in Leeds and boarded at Marlborough College where he learned the game of hockey, later representing the county of Yorkshire in that sport.[9]
