The Gould Jones Reservoir is a historic water storage tank, located on the grounds of the Newton County library, which was then just outside of Jasper, Arkansas on Arkansas Highway 7. The tank is a circular masonry structure, built out of concrete and brick in 1942 by Gould Jones, a local blacksmith and mason. It was built to provide water to a local tomato canning factory, and to provide water to the community of Jasper.[2]
The tank was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.[1]
