I haven't come across this in British registers, but have found it several times in French Records. In France, when the child came to marry, they had to 'prove' they were a different sex by getting friends and relatives to swear before the local Mayor.
Some children's sex isn't always clear at birth - so it is possible.
First I would check other areas, just incase the mother was staying with relatives or friends for the birth.
