Corbett was the oldest surviving son of Panton Corbett of Longnor Hall in Shropshire and Leighton Hall in Montgomeryshire. His mother was Louisa Favoretta Jones, from Lichfield in Staffordshire, and his father had been the Member of Parliament (MP) for Shrewsbury from 1820 to 1830.〔 The family was a branch of the Norman Corbet family of Caus, who came to England with William the Conqueror and were granted extensive lands in Shropshire and the Welsh Marches.〔
Corbett was educated at Eton.〔 He joined the British Army in November 1837 as an ensign in the 51st regiment, and was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant.〔 He switched to the 72nd Highlanders in 1841, and retired from the army in October 1844.〔 By 1874 he was living in Longnor Hall and held the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel in the Shropshire militia,〔
and the honorary rank of Colonel (which was bestowed in 1883). He resigned his commission in the militia in October 1884, but was permitted to retain his rank.
