Pulley was the son of Joseph Pulley of Bayswater and his wife Fanny Oldaker. He was a J. P. and Deputy Lieutenant for Herefordshire.[1]

Pulley stood unsuccessfully for parliament at Hereford in 1874 and 1878 and was elected Member of Parliament for the constituency in 1880. He held the seat until 1886.[2]

Pulley was created baronet of Lower Eaton, Hereford, in 1893. He died at the age of 78 without issue and the baronetcy became extinct.[3]

He married Mary Jane Burgess in 1860, but they had no children.[4] Pulley's sister Letitia married Thomas A. Oldaker, an estate agent, and in 1902 their daughter Emma Maud Oldaker married Captain William Davies, with many descendants.[5][4]
