You'd think a BCO would know how to spell lintel...

Isn't that one of 'those' words, the ones where those within the
industry spell them differently to everyone else? Like sill/cill. I
remember several such words the first time I was involved with plans.


I've got lots of plans for the mods to this place - and engineers
calculations. But can't remember it being spelt that way. 'Cill' yes.



It's the spelling used by our artichokes on the ongoing Western Wing
addition to Lowe Towers.

May be regional.
