Marks Tey Brickpit is a 29.5-hectare (73-acre) geological Site of Special Scientific Interest in Marks Tey in Essex.[1][2] It is a Geological Conservation Review site.[3]

This site has a record of pollen throughout the

Grade II listed early nineteenth-century bottle kiln and brick tile works on the site.[4][5]

The site is overgrown apart from a small area used for brick making.[4] It is private land with no public access, but a small area, which is now a field, can be seen from Marks Tey railway station car park.
