Glentower Lower Observatory, Achintore Road
Built in 1889 for the Scottish Meteorological Society, this was the Low Level Observatory. It was connected by telegraph to the High Level Meteorological Observatory, on the summit of Ben Nevis. This allowed measurements at the summit to be compared with measurements at sea level.
It is a Category B listed building. http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/LB31779
It is now the Glentower bed and breakfast. http://www.glentower.com/

Fort William and the 'Grey Elephant'
Ben Nevis towers over Fort William. The Ben is sometimes known amongst older generations of hillwalkers and climbers as the 'Grey Elephant' but you have to view it from the right angle (south west) and it can take a little stretching of the imagination to see the figure of a recumbent elephant - the hindquarters are on the left, the lump in the middle is the head and the outstretched trunk is towards the right. This is better seen when Ben Nevis is wearing its winter coat https://www.eclectech.co.uk/b3ta/benneviselephant.jpg.html
