It has flash coving on the cutback giving the impression it was a tunnel, so easily mistaken. Just inside the main tunnel there is clearly and arched tunnel portal that look like it is going east. What is that? The start of a tunnel that was abandoned?

The cutback is in the background, on the back wall. There is a round tunnel inside the large tunnel opening. Judging by the car it could be the 1970s. Photo from Oritlad's web site:
