Di, Handsworth Wood Station is almost opposite the Endwood. It's not easy to spot unless someone points it out - I don't think there was much in the way of station buildings, the photo I have of it does not show any. You also mention The Cruck House - I think this is the building used by Handsworth Historical Society and I am sure must be listed. It's open on certain days of the year, so must also be in a reasonable condition - for the safety aspect if nothing else. At least this was the case a year or two ago. Shortie
Could be Mike. This Bernard A. Porter died in the early 40s and I don't know if he had any offspring, but it's quite possible given his interest in history.Charlie
I note that , if you look up Bernard Porter in google, then the person that comes up is a professor of history (current) at Newcastle University. I wonder if he is the son/grandson of the person you mention, or if the interest in history is coincidental
