They were helped by firefighters from Sheringham.
An ambulance service spokesman said: 'An ambulance crew, rapid response vehicle, ambulance officer and fire service co-responders attended to an elderly woman who had gone into cardiac arrest and was not breathing.
'Despite their best efforts the patient sadly died at the scene.
'Our thoughts go out to her family and friends.'
