No obvious births found for her marriage with Charles Burt. There are in fact, nine Burt - Harding births but none around Dorchester; Oxfordshire is the closest county.

I wonder if this is a second marriage for her? It may need the certificate purchased.

Certainly the same lady was a Boarding House proprietoress in 1939, judging with her birth date:
Address: 2 Salisbury Villas , Dorchester M.B., Dorset
FIRST NAME(S) LAST NAME(S) DOB SEX OCCUPATION MARITAL STATUS SCHEDULE SCHEDULE SUB NUMBER
Bertha G Tyrrell 19 Apr 1890 Female Boarding House Proprietress Married 308 1
[Sorry, this record is officially closed. Check if you can open a closed record.]
Vera ? Bennett (Fooley,Bennett) 05 Sep 1918 Female Unpaid Domestic Dutie Single 308 3
William Toogood 26 Sep 1887 Male Brewers Labourer Single 308 4
The redacted line on this report indicates a youngster (probably). I wonder if it might be a child of hers, though she was 49 years old then and a few years past childbearing. There is an Allen child on the birth indexes with a Harding mainden name, now confirmed by the birth certificate to be hers: Mabyn Nesla Allen.
