Black Soot Building up on Aga Lid.

Just lifted the hot side lid on my gas Aga to find a lot of sooty deposit on the underside of the lid.
I don't want to go poking around at gas appliances unnecessarily but my experience with engines tells me black soot tends to be caused by poor fuel/air mixture, therefore I wonder if this could be a straight forward fix.
Before I call someone out can someone here tell me a few basic checks to make? And also when to admit defeat and call someone in.
