Adding a natural=bare_rockĀ  tag to reflect the exposed bedrock underneath (yes, chalk is a rock) would seem acceptable, and would have the definite bonus of getting the shape to render.

Otherwise, a hill figure can be variously a tourist attraction, a memorial, a monument, an archaeological site - it would depend on the specifics of when, by whom and for what purpose it was initially constructed.
