I always assumed it was one of those 1960s plate glass ones
Wasn't it built in the 60s? I do dimly remember it having modern architecture. Or more modern than a red-brick university anyway.
Anyway red brick unis - Birmingham, Sheffield, Newcastle and Queens, Belfast are all red-brick, I think.

Wikipedia is hardly the most reliable source, however, without looking into it on first thought I'd think Reading was a red brick.
What about the Russel group, Reading is not part of it. I thought that was the group of all the "red brick" unis.

oxbridge and bristol and lse first came in my head!!

In fact I believe its part of the 1994 group along with other unis like Royal Holloway. This does no indicate that they are somehow lesser unis though.
red bricks are normally associated with manchester, leeds, sheffield, liverpool, birmingham and bristol.
and sussex
