OK, but watch out for child1.co.uk's content, served from /server/parent/child1, being accessible at parent.com/child1. Even if you don't link to it there, if parent-webserver serves it up if explicitly asked then these unwanted URLs have a habit of leaking out and being crawled. Having /server/parent and /server/child1 avoids this possibility as parent can't serve something above its root, i.e. ../child1.
