This is probably better in DIY. You should get more replies there.

A stone mason or monumental sculptor would be able to advise and I know they sell special cleaners for stone (I've seen these in use- expensive but very effective). If you want to go the low cost DIY option soap and water with a little white vinegar added can be used to remove grime and dirt, use a non abrasive plastic scouring pad. An old toothbrush can be used to cleanout the corners and fine detail etc.
