Malsom came close to adding a second Dorchester goal, but the Magpies went in a half time trailing by a goal.
The Dorset side struggled to get hold of the game after the break, with conditions making for a scrappy contest.
The Magpies finally drew level mid-way through the second period when Clough powered home a headed effort after a good cross from Ben Watson.
Clough was unlucky not to seal all three points for Dorchester, but his effort was denied by Robbie Rice.
Both sides were forced to settle for a draw - with the Magpies now in 18th place in the Blue Square South, level on 29 points with Maidenhead United and Hornchurch.
