Hugh Boscawen (died 1795) was a British politician and office holder who sat in the House of Commons from 1774 to 1790.
[1] He was appointed Clerk of the Cheque to the Yeomen of the Guard in February 1772, while his father was Captain of the Yeomen of the Guard and held the post until his death.
His father died on 4 February 1782 and he inherited £30,000, the manor of St. Antony in Cornwall, and the Boscawen interest at St Mawes.
He was returned unopposed on his own interest in 1784 but then apparently sold his interest at St Mawes to the Marquess of Buckingham, who controlled the other seat in the borough.
It was expected in 1788 that his tenure of St. Mawes would expire at the end of the parliament as Pitt had promised him the office of Knight Marshal, and he did not stand in 1790.
