Do you mean the wooden section? If so Im afraid it doesnt come apart on its own, its part of the whole wooden side. Sometimes they are rotten and will almost fall out.

Remove the rear seat and the rear side trim - you will see the sill there inside the car. From below - the lower timber strut is covered with a plate held on with screws. At my first MOT with the car they told me it would need to be welded on - to wood ?? I had to show them the Manual to demonstrate it's just a cover ...........
