Mosterton is a village and civil parish in Dorset, England, situated approximately 3 miles (4.8 km) north of Beaminster.
It lies 2 miles (3.2 km) from Crewkerne railway station across the nearby county boundary in Somerset, and is served by a regular bus service from Yeovil to Bridport.
It was installed in 1975 and includes a combine harvester and a tractor, depicting the farming background of many of the local community.
Before the reconstruction it was called the New Inn, but on completion it was decided to honour the Hood family who had occupied a Georgian house that was originally on the site of the New Inn, who had a long naval history and whose name has been used on many battleships.
[4] It was donated with the intention of providing space for leisure time occupation, educational and recreational classes and the general well-being of the people of Mosterton.
