Are the other hydrangeas the same type Scarecrow?
All growing in the borders?
Mature plants?

I am assuming that you've checked for any signs of aphids which could cause similar looking damage. Some varieties are more prone to fungal disease than others, are they getting over-crowded? Is there enough air flow around them? The heatwave followed by the torrential downpours could have encouraged a fungal infection to take hold of the weaker one perhaps.

Looks like a virus which has been passed on by aphids to me. Hydrangeas can be swines to grow, they hate dry, hot roots and aren't keen on chalk either.
