Less well known, perhaps, than the old Southwell to Rolleston branch line, itself, was the spur taken from it to the south, which enabled coal trains to head straight for Nottingham. It joined the main line at Fiskerton Junction, next to Morton Crossing.
Having come through what later became a council recycling site [behind the camera, and itself since closed], and viewed from the bridge on Fiskerton Road, the line crossed the culvert below the parapet and cut across the field towards the gap in the hedge opposite, to a point just short of the junction.
