We have red flag fire warnings in our area should I shut the Ashford down?
 
I don't think your woodstove should be sending anything out of the chimney that could start a fire. As long as you aren't going to have a chimney fire, you should be fine I think,
 
The cat converter on your car is more likely to ignite something than your chimney is.

Coming from the fire service, red flag warnings advise not to burn open fires outside... I would not be to worried about inside wood burning
