Born at Boughton Monchelsea, where he was baptised in December 1757, Remington was one of three sons of Samuel and Susanna Remington who played cricket.[2] He made his debut in first-class cricket for Kent against Hampshire at Alresford in 1781, with Remington also playing in a first-class match for East Kent against West Kent in the same season.[3] His next appearance in first-class cricket came in 1787, when he played for Hornchurch against a combined White Conduit Club and Moulsey Hurst cricket team at Hornchurch.[3] Two weeks after this match he appeared for Essex against Middlesex at Lord's Old Ground, with Remington following this up with two further first-class appearances in 1787; one for the White Conduit Club against Middlesex, and a second for Hornchurch against White Conduit Club and Moulsey Hurst.[3] He made a final first-class appearance in 1791 for Hornchurch against the Marylebone Cricket Club.[3] Playing a total of seven first-class matches, Remington scored 133 runs with a high score of 28, while with the ball he took a single wicket.[1]
He died at Rochester in January 1826.[1] His brothers, Benjamin and Thomas, both played first-class cricket. Their surname has sometimes been spelled "Rimmington".[2]
