I've just finished a short evening course on architecture, which I've found to be a wonderful way to discover new words. One that came up in our final session is
'Tudorbethan', obviously a portmanteau of
'Tudor' and
'Elizabethan'. At the time I thought it was just a slip of the tongue by our tutor or perhaps just part of his idiolect - but
then I checked Wikipedia and it turns out that 'Tudorbethan' is a recognised synonym for what I would call
'Mock Tudor'.
Indeed, it's interesting that Wikipedia's page on the architectural style is titled Tudorbethan rather than Mock Tudor, suggesting the former label is the more well known or widely used.
Anyway, I won't go into two much detail because I would just be ripping off Wikipedia - but I thought I would share the word with you all. And here's a picture of something suitably Tudorbethan:
