I wonder if any colour gurus can help me with this 2x4 brick. The closest I can
pin it to is Medium Violet, I've attached a picture (top right brick)to try
and show the colour the best I can. I'm aware there are two Medium Violets
out there, a Lilac and Medium Bluish Lilac and wondering if it could be one of
these. The lamp post is Violet for reference. Any help would be appreciated
as it's a head-scratcher.

You are right, these are the two medium violets.

BrickLink makes no distinction between these colors.
One is medium blueish and the other is medium reddish violet.
