If you spot evidence of woodworm in an old building;
It's completely dry so is it safe to assume the woodworm holes could have occurred at any time in the past and woodworm no longer poses a problem? (I believe they need moisture to thrive)
I don't think woodworm cares that much about damp. They ate my wardrobe at university happily although they ate bathroom doors even quicker.
I would be inclined to treat it locally to be sure unless there was a very good reason to believe it had already been treated. That is what we had done to our house when woodworm was identified before moving in. (eg a certificate of previous spray treatment)
There is a solvent based brushable penetrating treatment OK for small problems and a water based sprayable Permethrin? one for larger infestations. It is DIYable with care but you will need PPE.
Absent evidence of fresh dust you won't really know until next June or so when they fly if you have active ones present or not.
IIRC a traditional way of dealing with woodworm was to have a sacrificial log in the attic. I believe ash was the timber of choice as the WW had a preference for ash and would seek it out if they could 'smell' it. Every couple of years the log would be removed, burnt along with the WW, and a fresh log put in it's place.
