Tudor style architecture dates back to the early 16th century in England, with much of Medieval architecture incorporated into its designs. However, when most remodelers and builders of today refer to Tudor style architecture, they are actually referring to a more modern American Tudor style. The style is a revival of Tudor architecture that evolved into a mix of Tudor, Elizabethan, and Gothic architecture and became popular locally in the 19th and 20th centuries.
In modern times, it is known for its simple, rustic look and often referred to as Mock Tudor, Tudor Revival, or Jacobethan architecture.
