Guess it’s how they’re manufactured. It’s common.
No, it's a facing.

Very good, walked into that oneNo, it's a facing.
Its a render key for single skin garage interior finishes.
Is that true?
Wouldn't a single-skin wall rendered on the inside be subject to damp and associated problems?
Unlikely though I'm pretty sure I remember the slots in the back having a sort of dove tail grip shape to them.....?
I initially thought they were to help chop a brick into half/quarters, but having built my extension with them, they aren’t.
You used to be able to get Fluted LBC commons which were sometimes used when bricks were used on the inner skins and party walls. Engineering commons sometimes have to give a bit of grip for render or plaster.
The old Terracotta blocks had a dovetail flute(as noseall said) because this type of clay had very little suction for the spreads.
