Maybe it's QM's way of saying that the island belonged to ancient Greece (the meaning of 'Grecian'), but wasn't Greek?

Thank you, Jane Austen, for giving me Lake District. I've never heard of the names in the clue, but in Pride and Prejudice I remember the Gardiners taking Elizabeth on a tour and they originally planned to visit the Lake District. It was the only thing I could think of and I got lucky.
