Default wood in wall

I removed the plaster from a wall I am going to take down yesterday. I
was surprised to see that in 3 positions there was wood rather than a
brick course. These stretched the full length of the wall and were at
about 4 courses up, two thirds of the height up the doorway, and just
above the doorway. The house was built in the early 20th C.

Any ideas why it was constructed in this way?

Cheers

Martin
