Where Causeway Lane crosses the ex Midland Railway line from Nottingham to Newark and Lincoln. Located, despite its name, on the outskirts of Morton, this box was built to work the junction that was installed here in 1929 when a chord was opened to link this line to the Rolleston to Mansfield line. The box remained after the junction closed in 1965, retaining its name presumably to differentiate it from Fiskerton box, about half a mile away in the direction of Newark.
