Where did you get it from as you must have known his surname to download it?  What year & county?

Looks like Tunnicliffe to me

I agree with Tunnicliffe (possibly Tunnecliffe), and Sarah's surname might be Tindall or Sindall, with an extra 'l' inserted - she doesn't look to have been a very confident writer.

However, with a register of this pattern, the names should also be at the top of the entry, written out by the minister or clerk - and hopefully fairly legible.

Ah, I see. Anyway, we seem to be of one mind on Tunnicliffe (or slight variant) - see if any other thoughts come in for Sarah.
