In Brittany, France, many place names inckude the words 'La Grée' or 'Les Grées'. I cannot find a translation of this word which must be obsolete or archaic French, probably alluding to a geographical or physical feature. Can anyone provide me with an explanation of it?

Perhaps 'a stony place'?

It may suggest a geographical feature like sandstone or gravel.
