Re hash of clues

I am a unique man made feature found in the south east of SA. What am I?

I am unique in that I was a two man build.

This construction features a digger

I was started in 1957

I allowed valuable land to reclaimed from swamp

I can't believe no one has got this one yet.

My initials are WC and I am 12kms from Beachport.
 
Deepseeker, you are correct. Woakwine cutting was made using a D7 tractor, some judicious use of dynamite and a lot of determination. The drain created 1000s of acres of swamp land into valuable grazing land.
Great little lookout and rest stop just of the highway gives a good view of the cutting and land retrieved.

Over to you.

My name may cause you to think I am on another country's Eastern Coast.
But don't be fooled, for my grass has felt the drops of Royal Blood in the land Downunder.
