I have seen various tips on how to do this and many suggest using a pressure washer. However, I have also read that using a pressure washer can damage the wood and can wash out preserver from pressure treated timber. After cleaning, I will be applying a wood treatment but want to get the fence clean before I do this. Are specialised cleaners any good for removing algae? Any advice welcome.

I would go with the pressure wash if you intend to retreat the fence anyway.
Leave it till summer so it can dry thoroughly before treatment.

Summed will dry it and it will just brush off.
