   side of the page but I cant locate where to! I’m sure it must be something stupidly

 * Have you looked in your theme’s sidebar.php template file?

 * It depends on the kind of menu you had in mind.
 * So…
    What kind of menu did you have in mind?
 * (It really is not recommended to alter theme files, as your changes will be lost
   in the next update. Better to use theme options, plugin, or a child theme instead.)

 * You mean all the stuff in the right sidebar on your site (recent posts, categories,
   etc)? Check out Appearance > Widgets. There are a bunch of different tools you
   can use, and there should be no need to edit your theme.
