Lower Lemington

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.

RAF Moreton-in-Marsh was a Royal Air Force station near Moreton-in-Marsh, Gloucestershire. It was opened in November 1940 with three concrete and tarmac runways and five aircraft hangars. It closed for operational flying in early 1948. The base remained in use as a relief runway and for training. After a period of care and maintenance, the Station was handed over to the Home Office in 1955. The town's environs are quite flat and low-lying although it is situated at the northern extremity of the Cotswold Hills range. During World War II, a large area of this flat land to the east of the town was developed as an airfield and became the base of 21 OTU (Operational Training Unit) RAF, flying mainly Vickers Wellington bombers. It is highly likely that the airfield inspired the title of the radio show Much Binding in the Marsh. After all, two of its stars, Kenneth Horne and Richard Murdoch, served there as flying instructors.
