Following schooling at Charterhouse and the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich, Fane joined the British Army,[1] being commissioned into the Royal Horse and Royal Field Artillery in the Royal Regiment of Artillery as a Second Lieutenant on 22 April 1915.[2] He served in World War I and was promoted to Lieutenant in September 1919,[1][3] before retiring in January 1923 with that rank.[4]{{Refn|group="nb"|When he reached the age limit of liability for recall in 1947, Fane was removed from the Reserve of Officers and granted the honorary rank of Captain.[5]}} In 1937, he was appointed a Justice of the Peace and elected onto Kesteven County Council; in 1951, he became a Deputy Lieutenant,[1] and the following year was appointed High Sheriff of Lincolnshire[6] and was elected by his fellow County Councillors to be an alderman.
