Hi Paul
Try searching for Puddingmoor on www.streetmap.co.uk 
you'll get a result 
I have a couple of birth certs were the birth has taken place at a different address to the birth mother, in both cases it looks as though they have gone back to their mothers' houses to give birth.

Whilst the streets Pudding Moor and New Market are clearly marked today on maps of the town, you may find www.old-maps.co.uk (putting Beccles in the place search) helpful.
They are close by, perhaps baby arrived early whilst visiting family/friends ?
It may have been the home of a 'midwife' ?
Also if anyone has access to the SRO and can check out a copy of White's or Kelly's around the time you are searching, you may find more information.
Unfortunately the latest White's I have at home is 1855 and the oldest Kelly's I have at home is for 1937

Hup tew!
Suffolkmawther you mentioned White’s, Kelly’s and SRO could you explain what they are to me please I’m guessing they may be reference books.
Well, I see yew dew live to the north o' Suffolk in thet little ode place wot we need to alus hev a passport for 
White's - Gazeteer and Directory was published for various counties at various times. The NRO in Norwich should have copies of the Norfolk ones certainly (they may have Suffolk)
Kelly's is a later directory and includes telephone numbers.
Look out for other directories at the NRO and SRO too.
SRO - Suffolk Record Office
NRO - Norfolk Record Office
Your have that new RO in Norwich which my husband and I have been talking about visiting to do some further research on the very early Brockdish PRs.
The SRO has three branches, at Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds and Lowestoft.
All branches have PRs (Parish Records) and Census returns for the whole county, however if you wish to look at bastardy bonds, school log books and other 'village' records you need to go to the RO covering the village/parish. So it's Ipswich for all of East Suffolk, Bury for all of West Suffolk and Lowestoft for the few parishes in the north east of the county.
I think it would be worth checking the 1901 census (being closest) to see if she gave birth at the home of a relative.
There are some nice old photographs of Beccles at
http://www.francisfrith.com/search/england/suffolk/beccles/beccles.htm
It might be worth contacting the Museum at Beccles to see if they can help you further

Good luck with the search,
