Not getting any response I reposted above query in installation section and although this was removed I will still share with you the workaround I discovered to make the twitter feed work within the content sidebar.

1. Obtain the script in the usual way by logging in to your twitter account and set the height you require for your widget (don’t set a width)

2. Do not copy the script into the wordpress site but into a blank webpage outside of the WP site. Mine was at https://scfnw.org.uk/allinone.htm

3. Create a new text box in the contents sidebar in your WP site. In there add an iframe loading the page you created. Give the iframe a width of 100% and a height a little greater than the height you set at 1 (to avoid an additional vertical scrolling bar with in widget display) The code I entered into my text box was:
<iframe width=”100%” height=”1100″ src=”https://scfnw.org.uk/allinone.htm&#8221; frameborder=”0″></iframe>

Ok its a long winded way round to get something to work that had previously worked “out of the box” but it now works for me.

Hope it helps anyone else with the same problem.

Doh!!!
Sorry, never thought to check as it seemed to be working apart from the font.

Thanks

There was indeed an old guestbook directory lurking in the web root.
Now solved

Works a treat
