There are only two births of girls called Agnes Blair Ferguson on Scotlands People.
One is in 1877, so clearly not Jenny's mother.
The other is in Ardrie, Lanarkshire, in 1926.

None in Perthshire.

Does Jenny's birth cert say whether Agnes was single/ married/divorced/ widowed?
How does Jenny know she came from Perth?

Doesn't help much but in 1962/4 the only person on the electoral rolls for 42 Mapleton crescent was an Iris Gibbins. possibly widow of Edward Gibbins going from earlier electoral rolls. ( Iris Gibbins probably nee Penton so no obvious link as a relative).

But that would make her in her early forties for a birth in the 1960, s

My dear friend Jenny was adopted at birth, she was born in north Middlesex hospital, to Agnes Blair Ferguson on 8/6/63, who resided at 42 Mapleton crescent Enfield.
Agnes was originally from Perth Scotland.

Jenny,(Joy) knows nothing of her birth family, can anyone help.

Thank you
