I suspect that the spelling "Dubba" here is a mistake for Dubha - either a simple typo (B and H being adjacent on the keyoard) or a mistranscription of manuscript h as b. The only letters that can be doubled in Gaelic are L,M,N and R; on the other hand Creagan Dubha "Black rocks" seems to describe Sylvia's first photograph perfectly.

For a similar place-name in another part of the country, see NS4295 : Creagan Dubha, and for a Welsh equivalent SN8520 : Cerrig Duon Stone Circle with Maen Mawr Standing Stone.
