Nostalgic memories of Fort William's local history

Share your own memories of Fort William and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

I with my mum, sisters and brother moved to Fort William on the 19th of February 1978, from Hove. What a culture shock!  The sun shone down on us for 2 days and then it was typical Fort William weather after that. The only good thing was the scenery. We had a good view of Ben Nevis from our windows.  The down side was that I missed all my cousins and aunts and uncles who still lived in Shoreham and Steyning.
