Scale Hall sits to the east of Lancaster city centre. The area is mainly residential, with a mix of inter-war and post-war housing laid out along short terraces and semi-detached streets. Local facilities include a community centre, a primary school and playing fields, and a small parade of shops that serve day-to-day needs. Regular bus services run through the estate to Lancaster and to Morecambe. Scale Hall Road and surrounding streets link the estate to the city's road network, and footpaths connect local green spaces with neighbouring neighbourhoods.

The area retains allotments, a parish church and a modest shopping cluster, with housing that ranges from Victorian terraces to mid-20th-century estates. On the ridge above the settlement lies a Bronze Age bowl barrow that appears on local maps and can be seen from nearby lanes. Pocket parks and playing fields provide space for community activity, while local buses and lanes tie Torrisholme into the wider district.
