Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F), grease and flour a baking sheet thoroughly. Combine flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter in small pieces. Make a well in the center of the mixture, pour in the buttermilk and egg, and quickly knead into a soft dough. Finally, fold in the raisins. Roll out the dough to about 1.5 cm (0.69 in) thick, cut out scones using a tea glass (approx. 2 inches in diameter). Place them on the baking sheet, brush with a little milk, and bake for about 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
