Hannah Beresford is a non-canonical character created for the Agatha Christie's Marple adaptation By the Pricking of My Thumbs. Hannah runs a small inn, the "Bull and Butcher" in the village of Farrell St Edmund. She is a distant relative of Tommy Beresford.
The character of Hannah Beresford is a reworking of the character Mrs Copleigh from the novel By the Pricking of My Thumbs but she does not play exactly the same role. Hannah is not a voluble and talkative in this adaptation compared with Mrs Copleigh and so she is not a fount of background information about the people in the village. In this adaptation, she has an affair with Septimus Bligh, the local vicar.
