A relatively small projecting member or molding, as a stop bead, a fillet. 2. A member of wood fulfilling the functions of a cleat, but frequently much larger. Thus, the cross pieces at the top and bottom of a batten door are known as ledges, as also the much larger members performing a similar function in a partition or sheet piling. (Sturgis, 1900)
