Must have been something secret to be mentioned as "special work".

It was something special. The 1st Division was involved in Operation Hush http://www.longlongtrail.co.uk/battles/battles-of-the-western-front-in-france-and-flanders/operation-hush-including-the-battle-of-the-dunes/ in the summer of 1917 on the Belgian coast. So much of the work the Royal Engineers did was secret. This explains all the the elaborate screens being built, too.
