Places to stay in Crossways, Dorset

Crossways is a village in Dorset six miles east of Dorchester. Local dining options include The Pine Lodge Tea Room, The Red Lion, The Countryman Inn, and The Black Dog.

In the early 1930s Crossways was a sleepy hamlet of scattered bungalows and cottages, and at that time the Air Ministry acquired local heath and farm land to build an airfield. This airfield was completed in 1937 and was known as RAF Woodsford, although it was renamed RAF Warmwell a year later. RAF Warmwell played an important part in World War II, being a major fighter base during the Battle of Britain, and offering fighter protection for Portland Naval Base and other important south coast areas.
