I wouldn't guarantee it. The lines are defined as covering the width of the highway. They could easily regard that grass as part of the highway as I'd imagine it's maintained by the highways agency.

Better to find somewhere not covered by lines at all.

I think youd still get a ticket but could be wrong

On pavements, be aware if there are yellow dashes on the kerbs, like here http://goo.gl/maps/tJ0UM you will get a ticket for parking any vehicle on the pavement

Just for future reference (because I'm likely to find myself without a parking spot in this location again.....)

If I park where the red box is (within the times on the yellow sign) i may get a ticket.... If I park where the blue box is (at any time, provided not one bit of my car is touching or overhanging one bit of kerb / tarmac) then I'm good?

That would still be definable as the highway. Anywhere past the foot path would be fine, anywhere between the footpath and the centre of the road and the wardens will dry mount you!
