The burrow was used by farmers who wanted to safely store their tools close to their fields for the next day's work.

This cave itself has nothing to do with mining, which can be easily confused in the area.

Unfortunately I have not yet found out what the background of the (artificial) cave is.

No, not a shaft, but a cave, although the kids probably won't mind and will have fun (but please be careful, as small animals like to hide in caves like this one, wanting peace and quiet from humans!).

I think this description by Torsten is a great explanation (-> Thanks!):
