Does Victorian architecture go into classical architecture?

"Victorian Architecture", from an architectural historical standpoint, is a problematic term.

In the UK, it generally means architectural styles that became popular during the reign of Queen Victoria (1837-1901). More specifically, it is often associated with the "free" and eclectic styles popular from the 1860s onward.

In the US, and to some extent in other English-speaking countries, it usually means a relatively ornate style, a sort of fretwork arts-and-crafts style. Example: San Francisco's "Painted ladies" are often referred to as "Victorian" though they bear little resemblance to any style of British origin.

The arts-and-crafts, freestyle and eclectic styles adopted during the Victorian period often use or refer to classical elements but they should NOT be generally considered classical as they forgo two important features of classicism: axial symmetry/readability (in favor of more articulated spaces) and scaling and detailing that is largely/wholly linked to classical Greece and Rome.

Of course, many classical buildings were erected during the Victorian age.
