Abstract:		 In January 2008, Oxford Archaeology (OA) carried out a field evaluation at the site of the Reading Civic Headquarters and Hosier Street Masterplan, Reading, Berkshire. The work was on behalf of Mace Ltd in advance of a planning application for the redevelopment of the Hosier Street area of Reading, and construction of a new Civic Centre. The evaluation revealed possible medieval pits overlain by a garden or cultivation soil. A re-cut 16th century boundary ditch, 16th- and 17th-century pits and post-medieval garden soils were also recorded. Redeposited medieval pottery and roof tile was recovered from the features, as well as the disarticulated skeletal remains of two individuals. It is likely that prehistoric, Roman or Saxon burials are located in close proximity to the evaluation trenches. The post-medieval features were overlain by a 19th century garden soil, which was cut by the footings of a 19th century school and terraced properties.
