Marks Tey is a large village and civil parish on the western edge of the borough of Colchester in Essex, England. It sits in gently rolling north-Essex countryside close to the A12 and a key railway junction on the Great Eastern Main Line, which gives the village an outsized role as a local transport hub.
With medieval roots and a traditional parish church, Marks Tey combines village amenities - pubs, shops and a hall - with commuter links into Colchester and London. The railway branch towards Sudbury and nearby business parks mean it has a mixed suburban–rural character, balancing local agriculture and light industry with a growing population of commuters and families.
