At the moment I can have a coloured colum (set foldcolumn=2)
OR line numbering but I cant seem to combine them so that the numbers
appear on top of the coloured column.

The two are distinct things: the 'foldcolumn' houses the indication of folds while the line-number is, well, the line number. You can have neither, both, one, or the other. The colors can be tweaked independently by adjusting the highlighting for "LineNr" and "FoldColumn" respectively.

  :help hl-LineNr
  :help hl-FoldColumn

It sounds like you want to tweak how line-numbers are colored, something like:

:hi LineNr term=underline cterm=bold ctermfg=Yellow ctermbg=Blue guifg=Yellow guibg=Blue

adjusting the background ("bg") for your own color preferences. If you have your own color-scheme (I copied to ~/.vim/colors/timchase.vim & tweaked "elflord" to fit my personal tastes; activating in my vimrc with "colorscheme timchase"), you can just add that in there.
