You mean
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.shawwoodheat.webcard.ie%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0&user-agent=W3C_Validator%2F1.2

That's a generic error message generated by the validator when you follow a 
feedback a link. The actual error message is

"Line 13, Column 79: character "&" is the first character of a delimiter but 
occurred as data
.aw name has been involved in forestry & woodland work since the 1920's so 
it's."

The string occurs within the content="..." attribute of a meta tag. 
According to XHTML rules, no occurrence of plain "&" as a data character is 
allowed anywhere in a document. As the annotations to the error message 
suggest, replace it by "&".
