What was her name, provided she is no longer living.

Have you found her in the directories?

Ancestry has the Midwives Roll up to 1959, is that too early?

Later years are at TNA https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C6488

I can see an advertisement for a full time midwife (and general nurse) "Nurses house provided" at Wymondham in 1962, however it doesn't give an address.
July 1962
Publication: District Nursing
