*RCH EE 1917. Barnwell Junction (Jct.) - Fordham Jct. - 11m 74c; Fordham  Jct. - Mildenhall - 7m 26c.

The RCH map shows a North and a South Jct. at Fordham. In practice the junctions were entirely within the station area and controlled from the one signalbox located on the east-side station platform, therefore effectively part of the same junction. RR GE064/5 designates them both as Fordham Jct.
