Can anyone recommend something really good for cleaning flagstones?

I've tried the garden-centre algae killers, vinegar, strong detergent, and I
don't possess a power-washer and don't really want to buy one just for this.

Is there anything strong and effective I can brush on and rinse off?

Thanks.

My father always used Jeyes Fluid but I believe that isn't available any
more? Have you tried bleach Barb ?


Jeyes Fluid is still available but, apart from the horrible smell that
lingers for so long, both that and bleach might kill off any vegetation near
the slabs.
