Neil, FreeBMD (which incidentally you have free access to) shows a Samuel KENYON married in the first quarter of 1857 (Mar 1857 Manchester 8d 482). On the same page is a Sarah Ann SMITH. Because of the way the data are recorded you can only tell who is on the page, not who is married to who. The only way to be sure is to purchase the registration certificate.
