The Magpies searched for a way back into the game, but it looked bleak when Matt Warner doubled the home side's lead with seven minutes left on the clock.
However two minutes later, Moore scored his first goal for the Dorset die to give them hope of a late comeback.
Intense pressure from Dorchester nearly found an equaliser as Martin's effort rocketed back off the crossbar - but there was no time for the Magpies to rescue a point.
Dorchester face Truro City tomorrow night as they look to get back to winning ways.
