He was the only son of Philip William Skynner Miles (1816 - 1881), a major developer of the docks at Avonmouth, who was the eldest son of Philip John Miles (1773 - 1845) by his second marriage to Clarissa Peach (1790 - 1868), and Pamela Adelaide Napier, daughter of the soldier (distinguished in the Peninsular War) and military historian General Sir William Francis Patrick Napier. He was therefore half-nephew of Sir William Miles, 1st Baronet, half-cousin of Sir Philip John William Miles, 2nd Baronet, both Conservative politicians, and cousin of the fashionable portrait painter Frank Miles. He was educated at Harrow School and Oriel College, Oxford, and was High Sheriff of the City of Bristol in 1915-6.
