This marriage ties in with a James with the correct birth date on the pre war register
Marriage Mar qtr 1921 
Southworth,  James   
Stewart,  Susannah   
Preston    8e   1211   

Susanna was previously married
Marriage Dec qtr 1905
Stewart    Edward       
WILLIAMS    Susannah       
Preston    8e   1013


Another cheaper alternative is to download digital copies of both those 1922 birth certs and see which has the right birthdate.  It's a better way as it gives both parents names and a digital copy only costs £3 so total cost £6

If you are going to chase the parish record, Lancashire BMD shows the marriage at Preston, St Aidan - not Bamber Bridge St Aidan.
It’s hard to track the church down, but it seems to be ‘ evangelical C o E’, Elcho Street.
https://www.lancashire.gov.uk/media/898329/P.pdf

Just to say that there are a couple of newspaper snippets from the 1940s mentioning St Aidan’s, Elcho Street, Preston. It would be worth checking with the archives.

Many Thanks for the info

I wrongly thought there was only one St Aidan

I think you mean the following

PRESTON, Elcho St – Evangelical C of E (St Aidan)
M 1946-1976 Orig reg NMR 3/1-2
Walford  Staffordshire,Yorkshire
Boyes     Beverley, Hull
Allison     Beverley, Hull
Bowser   East Yorkshire
Etherton Sussex
