Hi,

My garage has a rather rotten window, which will need replacement in the
near future.

By the looks of it, there is no lintel above the window. The window is
wood. The wall is single thickness brick.

Outside: http://tinyurl.com/3sdfd


I note the window frame is not too substantial. Wooden lintels have
been used aplenty on old builds, but a thin strip like that I cant see
holding much. So I wouldnt rely on the window frame to support in this
case - althought it might be doing so.

Regards, NT
