Hi David,
You need to search the GRO Index for the birth and marriage registrations. You can search this for free via
http://www.ancestry.co.uk/search/rectype/vital/freebmd/bmd.aspx
select from the top box 'complete BMD Index'.
You have six weeks to register a birth in England, so if Leonard's birth date is correct then you should find his birth in the September quarter 1927.
Start looking for his parents' marriage in June quarter 1927 and work your way backwards. You need to find both names in the same quarter and year, with the same GRO district and reference number.
Ditto for any other BMDs you require. Usually you have to send for the birth certificate of the child in order to get the mother's maiden name. Then you know which other surname to look for in the GRO Index.
For more details about BMD certificates

and the address for obtaining certificates

The question is though - how will I know if you've bothered to read this? You've certainly not given any indication (via the forum board, which is the usual way) to other people who've replied to your queries that you've read their replies.

Assuming you have the correct date of birth there are two possibilities for the birth of Leonard Walker:

Both in the September Quarter 1927

Walker Leonard A Mothers Maiden Name Wright District Derby Volume 7b Page 904
Walker Leonard A J Mothers Maiden Name Place District W. Ham Volume 4a Page 160.

You can purchase the certificate using this information at the online address Pam gave you.

Take note David :D
Actually David has the habit of thanking one in the Private Messages.
Hey Dave, I think it is best to thank on the thread, so people do know you read the replies.

Thanks for solving the mystery - I wondered why you kept replying to so many of David's queries when there was no apparent response from him :)

Following on from Christine's reply about you thanking people via a Private Message, my flea-sized brain has sprung into action, and has a vague recollection of reading a PM thank you from you in reply to a previous answer I gave to one of your queries. That was three months ago, and it was 7 o'clock this morning when I was typing my latest reply, so it's perhaps not surprising that my brain didn't engage at the time.
I therefore sincerely apologise for my comment.
