Is the battery likely to be still good? Is it worth buying a charging cable for this free find? I don’t suppose an old wide-style Apple cable would fit? (iPod, I guess. I have that, somewhere.)

The battery might not be good, especially if this is a used Nook.
As previously mentioned, you just need a micro-USB charger, which is cheap. I would buy one if you don't have one already and try to recharge the Nook. Only if that doesn't work do you need to buy a new battery.
In my experience, I bought a new battery and it only lasted a year. I believe unused batteries age.
