Scanning a Berkshire town (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reading

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'scanning' is the first definition.
('read' can be a synonym of 'scan')

'a berkshire town' is the second definition.
(Reading is a town in Berkshire)

(Other definitions for reading that I've seen before include "Study of literature" , "First contribution to educational foundation" , "lesson" , "University - studying" , "Study of books etc" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
