I have encountered Spell Checking plugin awkward setup behaviour. It comes down to proper config however - so It is solved but it is problematic because there is ambiguous information on how to setup it.

1st
as explained in here: https://plugins.geany.org/spellcheck.html

Note: if you are using Enchant 2.0 or later (the library used by the SpellCheck plugin), you need to move the dictionaries into a subfolder called "hunspell" in the directory you created above. To check which Enchant version you are using, check "Help->Debug Messages" in Geany and find the appropriate log message telling about the Enchant version.

Files need to be in the hunspell directory

2nd
I've downloaded .dic and .afc but I had to substitute dash for underscore in their filenames

ex:

en-GB.aff -> en_GB.aff
en-GB.dic -> en_GB.dic

after that I've put both of these in

C:\Programs\Geany\dict\hunspell

dict -is a newly created folder, for my own convenience

3rd
In geany spell checker plugin preferences however I had to point to

C:\Programs\Geany\dict

and NOT to

C:\Programs\Geany\dict\hunspell

in order to spell checker to detect en_GB
