Looks about the same as mine, I get build-up on the inside like that to when running low. The cat should keep everything past it pretty clean.
I get a build up like that on my cat stove as well, just part of burning low and slow. Atleast you guys have a decent air wash on the window, mine blacks out after a good overnight burn.

I had build up like that in shoulder season, but it is all gone now (running the stove hard will do that).
Of course, I have a hybrid stove, when I run it hard it switches to secondary burn.

Looks very similar to the inside of my Ashford, and your flue sweepings sound like mine too. What I do occasionally is scrape that stuff a little bit with the BK tool so it flakes off onto red hot coals and gets a second chance to go through the cat and get eaten rather than condense on the wall again.
Don't go crazy. If you get to banging around in there too much you'll be replacing bricks.
