It is the wood trim that the brick stops behind or against. It hides the top or end of brick so you don't see the air space behind the brick.
Brick is commonly called "brick veneer". It is a Wall covering. It does not support weight. The roof should not connect to the brick. Trim "frieze" covers the gap between the brick and soffit.
You could remove the brick and frame a wall on top of the brick ledge, even with the outside of the slab, then run your siding. You will also have to consider what to do with the brick frieze at the soffit.
