He also served for many years in the volunteers in Robin Hood Rifles, of which he became lieutenant colonel. He was also a J.P. for Nottinghamshire. Wright was elected as one of the two Member of Parliament (MPs) for the constituency of Nottingham at the 1868 general election. He resigned from parliament in 1870, due to ill health, by the procedural device of accepting the appointment as Steward of the Chiltern Hundreds.

Wright owned Watcombe Park between Newton Abbot and Torquay (now known as Brunel Manor) where he and his family were living in 1881. Later he was living at Hartendale Frensham Surrey, where he died at the age of 76. He was buried at the church of St Thomas on the Bourne Farnham. Wright married Blanche Louise Bingham, eldest daughter of Henry Bingham, in 1852. He was a good amateur musician. (en)
