Lintel leveled an mortared in

Hi Folks,

Well I leveled up the lintel with wedges and a big hammer, then squared it off with the joists using my framing square. As you can see the top of the lintel will be level with the floor boards so the framing joints will show through as a detail.

I know the floor seams slightly higher here these two joists that frame the stairs are slightly higher than all the other joists so the floor is level until it gets to this point them goes up hill.  I put this down to Victorian builders saying ah that'll do it'll be allright. I have leveled the lintel with the other joists and will sort this snag went I replace these two joists.
