Chenies Palace in the parish of Chenies in Buckinghamshire, England, is a Tudor Grade I listed building[1] once known as Chenies Manor House, although it was never a royal seat nor the seat of a bishop. It was held by the Cheney family since 1180 and passed by marriage successively to the Semark and Sapcote families and thence in 1526 to the Russell family,[2] Earls of Bedford, later Dukes of Bedford, by whom it was held for several centuries. Although the Russells soon abandoned Chenies as its main seat in favour of Woburn Abbey in Bedfordshire, Chenies parish church remains the site of the private "Bedford Chapel", the mausoleum still in use by that family.[3]
John Russell, 1st Earl of Bedford set about improving the house both as his home and enlarging it to the size and standard needed to house the royal court, so he could host visits from the king. The house was probably constructed by him around 1530–1550, while the significantly larger north range, which included the royal apartments, has been demolished. Russell had a meteoric career as an advisor to successive monarchs, becoming wealthy and titled and acquiring other properties. By about 1608 Woburn Abbey had become the principal family residence. Thereafter Chenies became increasingly neglected; the surviving buildings are the ones which were still considered practical.
At the northern end of the west wing, there is an undercroft from the previous medieval manor house which occupied the same site, which is a scheduled ancient monument. wikipedia

Tudor House is a beautiful 16th century building in Worcester’s oldest street. Weavers lived here in the 1500s and it was a tavern in the 1700s. Now it's a museum where people can see over 400 years of history.

At Barrington Court, near Ilminster, Somerset.
I love the intricate twists in Tudor period chimneys, beautiful. National Trust.
The building of this magnificent Tudor Hall began in the reign of King Henry VIII.
Little Morton Hall in Cheshire was constructed during the Tudor period, with the earliest part of the house begun in around 1504-1508 and the latest addition being completed in 1610. The Moreton family were wealthy landowners in the area and built the house as a symbol of their prosperity.
The house remained in the possession of the Moreton family for almost 450 years, until ownership was transferred to the National Trust in 1938.
Enter via a sandstone bridge across the moat to view this lovely historical hall.
I spent a lovely sunny day exploring this hall and it's gardens, Coot's feeding their chicks, Orange Tip butterfly in the box hedge garden, Mute swan on a nest of 4 eggs by the side of the moat...lovely day! :)

Tudor-style apartment buildings seen on Sherman Avenue and Elwood Street, in the Washington Heights neighborhood of Upper Manhattan
I have liked the look of this for its Tudor look, multiple dormers including in back, and the side bay window. It is on a lot with 90 feet of frontage, large for this area. I have walked by this house periodically for nearly 30 years and have never seen a person on the property. It sold once during that period.
Tax assessment information indicates that it is a 1926 build of 3,080 square feet and 2 1/2 stories with an assessed value of $787,000 C.
History teaches us what was..........the present shows us what can be.
Taken at Little Moreton Hall, Cheshire..........this shack was built in 1559...a perfect example of Tudor design

Tudor House, in King Street, Margate, is one of the oldest (and nicest!!) buildings in Margate, and it is often open as a museum at certain times of the year. 28th August 29016.
The Tudor House reveals over 800 years of history in one fascinating location at the heart of the Old Town part of Southampton. The timber-framed building facing St Michael’s Square was built in the late 15th Century, with King John’s Palace, an adjacent Norman house accessible from Tudor House Garden, dating back a further 300 years. Tudor House gives a unique and atmospheric insight into the lives and times of both its residents through the years, and of Southampton itself.

A Southern class 377 'Electrostar' unit draws to a halt at Kingswood station. The lower part of the Tudor style building on the opposite platform houses a ticket hall and waiting area, which is used at certain times. The upper part of the building is a private business.
Sion Hall is located on London's Victoria Embankment overlooking the River Thames at Blackfriars. The building, designed by Sir Arthur Blomfield, was completed in 1886. Historic England describe it as being in Tudor Gothic style (elsewhere it is perpendicular Gothic), particularly noteworthy for its irregular storeys and fenestration. It is a Grade II listed building.
The site originally formed part of the garden of Salisbury House, the mediaeval London home of the Bishops of Salisbury. Buildings here were destroyed in the Great Fire in 1666, following which the Earl of Dorset commissioned a lavish theatre designed by Sir Christopher Wren.
By the 1720s the land was being used as a wharf and timber yard, replaced in 1814 by the City of London Gas Works, before being sold to Sion College in 1884. The College's Library held some 100,000 volumes which were accessible to the public and to scholars, and was a place of wholehearted commitment to achievement.
The College disposed of the site in 1996 and is now administered from offices in Fleet Street; the library was divided between Lambeth Palace Library (manuscripts, pamphlets and pre-1850s books) and The Maugham Library in King's College (the newer books).
Sion Hall was converted into offices and is currently occupied by a specialist institutional investment management company.
