Scott's Hut was prefabricated in England before being brought south by ship.
It is rectangular, 50 feet (15 m)  long and 25 feet (7.6 m) wide.
Insulation was provided by seaweed sewn into a quilt, placed between double-planked inner and outer walls.
The roof was a sandwich of three layers of plank and two layers of rubber ply enclosing more quilted seaweed.
Lighting was provided by acetylene gas, and heating came from the kitchen and a supplementary stove using coal as fuel.

Apsley Cherry-Garrard wrote that the hut was divided into separate areas for sleeping and working by a bulkhead made of boxes of stores.
A stables building (for nineteen Siberian ponies), approximately 50 by 16 feet (15.2 by 4.9 m), was subsequently attached to the north wall of the main building.
A utility room, approximately 40 by 12 feet (12.2 by 3.7 m), was also added later, built around the original small porch at the southwest end of the main building.

Considerable effort was made to insulate the building, and to extract the maximum amount of heat from the flues from the stove and the heater, based on lessons learned from the Discovery Hut.
Terra Nova expeditioners described the hut as being warm to the point of being uncomfortable.

A cross is erected on a hill behind Scott's Hut at Cape Evans, but this is not connected to Captain Scott, having been erected in memory of the three members of Shackleton's Ross Sea Party, who died nearby.
The cross erected in memory of Captain Scott and his polar companions is to be found atop Observation Hill.
