26th division Field Ambulance. Salonika

[20th Division]

Hoping to locate a town or place in the SALONIkA campaign. The only clue I have is a bad-spelling " GRE(C) OVICA" or "Oriovica"????on the back of a photo. Not easy to get a copy of the original downloaded for some time----.  

       " 26th ( 2/6th??) Field Ambulance Nr. GRECOVICA". The location is probably somewhere south of the 60th division's line East of Lake Doiran. Hope a 26th division buff may i.d. the place easily. Thanks. Dave.

I have a place name index for some of the main trench maps, nothing jumps out, if you could provide an image or scan that might help.

LLT tells us that the 26th FA served with the 8th Division on the WF. The 60th Division had the 2/6th.  

This might help: https://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/object/205020990. It gives you Oreovica (Oreovitsa), but the only place of that name I can find is up north in Serbia.

See: http://www.fallingrain.com/world/GR/59/Pefkodasos.html. It seems that Pefkodasos used to be known, among other names, as Orévitsa.
