Thats the importers markings, Woodcock Hill Benton PA. The WW on the forend lug is the barrel makers mark or the shop who sleeved the barrels.

You will find all sorts of odd marks on guns that you will never really know what they mean . They will no doubt refer to specific men or shops who built parts of the gun or did specific work on it . In this example I would assume it was the barrel maker , be it in house or as an out worker .

Do you know what year the gun was made ?
There were a few Midland barrel makers with W W initials,
