It's a joint they make in England. In America the same joint is called a rabbet. I use my router to make these joints. I mount a straight bit, adjust my router's fence so the routing is right along the edge of the board, and make a rout that's the width of the thickness of the board I'm joining to it, and half the depth of the board I'm routing. When it's done, it looks like an L. Then I glue the second board into the rout, at a right angle.
