CCC Company 3767 Powder Magazine Historic District

The CCC Company 3767 Powder Magazine Historic District encompasses a pair of storage structures built by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in Ouachita National Forest. It is located northwest of Jessieville, down a short abandoned roadway leading north from the junction of Gladstone Forest Road and Hampo Road. The larger building, which housed explosives used in CCC construction projects, is a roughly 9-by-7-foot (2.7 m × 2.1 m) stone building, with a separate wall wrapping around its east side. The smaller building, in which blasting caps were stored, is about 4 feet (1.2 m) square stone structure, with a concrete top and floor.[2]
