| Reading Gaol - built between 1842 and 1844 and was one of the earliest designs by George Gilbert Scott. He designed it with his partner William Bonythorn Moffatt, based on the new model prison at Pentonville, implementing the ‘separate system’ of solitary confinement.  The main building was for men, and there was a separate wing (since demolished) for women.
