Fiskerton Junction level crossing

Where Causeway Lane crosses the ex Midland Railway line from Nottingham to Newark and Lincoln. Located, despite its name, on the outskirts of Morton, the "junction" in the name of the box appears to refer to a trailing crossover on the opposite side of the level crossing. On the map, it looks as though there could have been a junction here with a link onto the line from Rolleston to Southwell and Mansfield, but my 1904 Railway Clearing House atlas does not show such a chord.
