James Winter Scott (26 May 1799 – 4 January 1873)[1] was a British Whig politician from Hampshire.

Scott was the son of James Scott who was MP for Bridport from 1820 to 1826.[2]

On 24 January 1828, he married Lucy Jervoise, daughter of Sir Samuel Clarke Jervoise: Scott's brother-in-law, Jervoise, was an MP for the neighbouring South Hampshire seat.

Scott was elected at the 1832 general election as a Member of Parliament (MP) for the newly created Northern division of Hampshire.[3][4] He was re-elected in 1835,[5] but retired from the House of Commons at the 1837 general election.[3][6] He made no recorded contribution to debates.[7]

He was nominated as High Sheriff of Hampshire in 1861[8] and in 1862,[9] and after a third nomination in 1863[10] he was appointed to the office in 1864,[11] when his address was given as Rotherfield Park, Alton.[12]
