Cudham came under Bromley registration district which ties with the marriage etc.
This may be his birth
Name: Thomas Wood
Date of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep 1855
Registration district: Bromley
Registration County: Greater London, Kent
Volume: 2a
Page: 181


however if his birth on the census shows as 1855 then I would expect this one to show as 1856 as its after the census month for 1861
