Lower Lemington is a small village in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, England. The village is about 2 miles (3 km) north-east of Moreton-in-Marsh. Lower Lemington lies east of the Fosse Way, and west of a small stream which may have been called the Leam and may have given its name to the place.There was a settlement here in Saxon times, and the place was recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Lemingtune, when it was in the possession of Tewkesbury Abbey. The village continued to be known as Lemington until the 16th century. A distinction was then made between Lower Lemington and Upper Lemington: the two places were effectively a single village but with different manorial holdings and land ownership. Lower Lemington, held by Tewkesbury Abbey, was a separate manor and parish. Upper Lemington, about 300 metres to the east, was a manor held by Westminster Abbey and was included in the parish of Todenham. By the 20th century the name Upper Lemington had fallen out of use.The church of St Leonard was built in the 12th century. It is now a Grade I listed building.Lower Lemington became a civil parish in 1866. By 1931 the population of the parish was only 50. In 1935 the civil parish was abolished and merged into the civil parish of Batsford.

Dorn is a hamlet in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, England. The hamlet is about 1 mile north of Moreton-in-Marsh. Dorn lies on the west side of the Fosse Way, and there was a small Roman town here. The Roman site was the largest of five defended small towns on the line of the Fosse Way between Cirencester and Lincoln. Dorn is the site of the annual Moreton and District Agricultural Show, held on the first Saturday in September on part of the site of the Roman town. The railway line to Worcester runs alongside the show ground, and at Dorn reaches the highest point between Oxford and Worcester. This is also the Thames/Severn watershed. Dorn was one of the lands mentioned in King Edgar's Charter to the church at Worcester in 972. It was apparently included in the manor of Blockley in 1086, and became part of the parish of Blockley and therefore part of Worcestershire until 1931, when Blockley was transferred to Gloucestershire. In 1935 Dorn was transferred from the civil parish of Blockley to the civil parish of Batsford.
