that sounds like what is called here: a T hinge.

Subject: [BlindHandyMan] But hinges vs strap hinges.
I've been thinking about this question of hinges for the doors to my shop.
A standard but hinge has the counter sinks drilled so the plates of the
hinge are between the two surfaces of the door and the frame as they come
together. On a heavy door the screws in the top and center hinge are in
tension which is usually not recommended.
On a strap hinge which is mounted on the outside surface of the door and
frame the screws are mostly in sheer which is the condition in which they
are strongest. The hinges that were supplied with the lawn mower house kit
and those used on the 3 foot wide shop built doors on the teddybear cottage
are a kind of hybrid type looking like a strap hinge on one side of the
pivot and a but hinge on the other. These are surface mounted like a strap
hinge.
Regards.
