Image of burial record here: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HT-6PB9-Q9F?i=36&wc=92BV-...
Very difficult to read, but the line above seems to say something like Harwin on the right hand side, probably unrelated to the next line "Pagrave ... wife of Richard Gurdleston.... Buried April 14th 1705"
NOTE: A few entries further down, "Nathanial Palgrave, Clerk, Rector of this Parish, was buried December 14th 1705".

NOTE: Palgrave and its variants was a surname prevalent in Norfolk. There is a Palgrave Society: http://www.ffhs.org.uk/members/palgrave.htm (see list at bottom of the page for multiple variant spellings!).

These records relate to a later Palgrave Fish - possibly a niece??
