Hi Paul, 

you could add
      \with-dimensions #'(0 . 0) #'(0 . 0)
which tells LP to behave as if the following markup had the given dimensions
(in this case: no space at all).
Try:

% -----------------------------------------------------------
\version "2.19.25"
\include "include/defs.ily"

\markup {
  \score {
    \new StaffGroup
    \new Staff \with {
      \omit Staff.TimeSignature
    }
    \relative c {
      \set Score.proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1/8)
      \override Score.SpacingSpanner.strict-note-spacing = ##t
      c,1 c
      c
      -\tweak #'extra-offset #'(-2.5 . -15)  % move to right position
      -\tweak #'layer #-1  % place in bottom layer
      ^\markup {
        \with-dimensions #'(0 . 0) #'(0 . 0)
        \with-color #(rgb-color 1 0.5 0.5) % specify color
        \filled-box #'(0 . 1) #'(0 . 25) #1  % specify size
      }
      c
    }
    \layout { }
  }
}
% -----------------------------------------------------------

Is that what you need?
