Kinlochleven
Kinlochleven is a village situated in Lochaber, in the Scottish Highlands and exists at the eastern end of Loch Leven. To the north lie the Mamores ridge; to the south lie the hills flanking Glen Coe. The town was developed from 2 formerly separate tiny areas - Kinlochmore to the north of the River Leven in Inverness-shire and Kinlochbeg to the south of the Leven in Argyll - adhering to the building and construction of an aluminium smelter as well as connected real estate for its staff members. The handling plant was powered by a hydroelectric scheme located in the mountains over, as well as made Kinlochleven the first village in the world to have every home linked to electrical energy, creating the expression "The Electric Village". In 1991, the town (according to yearly census returns) had simply over 1000 citizens in some 420 homes. Today it is a noteworthy vacationer location as well as centre for mountain searches.
