The statue is made of bronze, granite, and concrete. It stands on a stepped concrete podium with a rock-faced granite plinth. The pedestal features a bronze commemorative plaque on the west side and supports the bronze statue of Captain Scott, who is depicted with his cap in hand and a husky dog lying at his feet.
