Fort William was originally based around the village of Inverlochy but now lies at the southern end of the Great Glen, on the shores of Loch Linnhe and Loch Eil.

Throughout history the area around Fort Willian was strongly Cameron country, and there were a number of Cameron settlements close by such as Blarmacfoldach.

Prior to the building of the fort itself, the largest settlement in the area was Inverlochy which was the site of the Battle of Inverlochy.

It was then used to suppress the Jacobite uprisings of the 18th century.
