RAF Warmwell Memorial at Crossways
The aptly named village of Crossways was created after the war on the site of the former RAF station Warmwell, made famous as a Battle of Britain fighter station. During the Battle, it hosted two squadrons of Spitfires, providing protection for the nearby naval base at Portland, as well as other coastal installations. It continued as a fighter station for the duration of the war, and was Dorset's only RAF fighter base, with many different aircraft types flying from here. In March 1944 the station hosted the 474th Fighter Group of the USAAF flying P38 Lightnings during D-Day and the aftermath. The memorial was commissioned to commemorate those who served at Warmwell who died in the cause of freedom. Image
