I've got some sash windows where the bottom half isn't just painted-in,

In the past I've used a washing-up-liquid bottle with a short length
of plastic hose on, to slip through the gap between the top and bottom
sashes when the top one is opened slightly, to wash the bottom window.

I think I'd take the sash out. You should just be able to remove one
vertical section of the staff bead and lift it out
