    John Bavington-Jones says in his Dover book:

    "This church fell into ruins about the close of the Stuart period, and was restored by Sir Gilbert Scott in 1860. The bells of this church were hung in the Pharos tower; but when it ceased to be used, they were given to a church at Portsmouth, from which originated the saying that the bells of Dover Castle could be heard at Portsmouth."

    so yes, the Castle Church picture above, would be just before its restoration in 1860.
