Preheat oven to 425\u00b0F. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
Place grated zucchini on paper towels and squeeze out excess moisture.
Sift flour into a large bowl. Rub in butter lightly using fingertips. Stir in zucchini, cheese, ham and scallion. Season to taste.
Make a well in center of flour mixture. Pour in milk all at once. Using a bread and butter knife, mix quickly to a soft, sticky dough. Do not over-mix.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, until scones sound hollow when tapped. Cool on a wire rack.
