In a large bowl, mix the flour, salt, paprika and black pepper.
Rub the butter into flour with your fingertips to make breadcrumbs.
Sprinkle the grated cheese into the breadcrumb mixture and rub in until the cheese is evenly distributed.
Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in enough half-and-half to give a fairly soft but firm dough.
Lightly flour a surface and roll out the dough to approximately 2cm thick. Cut out the scones with a medium cutter and then place on a baking tray. Glaze the tops with the cream/milk and sprinkle a little cheese and mixed dried herbs on the top of each scone before putting in the oven for about 12-16 minutes.
