"Victorian" is a generalized term, usually used for all things late 19th
century.
But Vicki was queen of England...albeit a rather expansive England. But
still English.
The houses most Americans think of as Victorian are also known as Gothic
Revival or Gingerbread Gothic. But there's also Antebellum [another
generalized
term] and Italianate Revival and a whole host of other styles that are
"Victorian" [her rein does start in the 1830's y'know] but are not generally
thought of that way.
It's the same kinda problem you have with generalized costume period labels.
