Am I right in assuming that you've just used a theme for your wordpress site?

yes PrimePress

Ok well in header.php (Which will be in wp_content/themes/primepress or something along those line) and at around line 37 you'll see

<ul class="menu">
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/main-menu.php'); ?>
</ul>

That is the bit that posts all your pages - there is going to be issues if you want edit this

if you want to edit the site description you'll need to edit line 28 and 31

<p class="description"><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></p>

which is the description, do you know how you'd like to fix the problem, how would you like it to look?

Cheers for the info found out you can edit the custom css and place code in there which then gives you the option to add extra space
