Works
Three of Scott's busts feature in the collection of London's National Portrait Gallery, and she is also the subject of thirteen photographic portraits there.
She sculpted at least two statues of her first husband, Antarctic explorer Robert Falcon Scott, after his death. One of these is located in Christchurch, New Zealand and another is in Waterloo Place, London. A plaque to Scott is on the exterior of the Scott Polar Research Institute in Cambridge with a statue of "Youth" (1920), for which the model was A.W. Lawrence, younger brother of T. E. Lawrence (better known as "Lawrence of Arabia").
She also sculpted a statue of Edward Smith, captain of the Titanic, after his death. This is situated in Beacon Park, Lichfield, England.
A statue at Oundle School entitled "Here Am I, Send Me" is erroneously held to be modelled on Peter Scott.
She also produced a small bronze of the Indian actor Sabu.
A memorial statue of Charles Rolls by Scott stands on the promenade in Dover.

“Great works constructed there in nature’s spite
For scholars and for poets after us,
Thoughts long knitted into a single thought,
A dance-like glory that those walls begot.”
