This appears to be a 'longitudinal quarry' parallel to the railway line. Perhaps the Southern Railway was short on material for its Thanet route alterations in 1926, so it took material from this location. Without removing material adjacent to the running lines. The scar can still be seen on the landscape today, with the flat parts of the area being given over to industrial use.
