Barrington takes its name from Great Barrington, Massachusetts, chosen by developer William Simpson in the 1880s.
The borough was incorporated on March 27, 1917, from portions of the former Centre Township.
The Motor Zone at 1010 N White Horse Pike in Stratford is your nearest destination for subprime and second-chance auto financing. We serve all of Camden County and the greater South Jersey area — including Barrington residents who have been turned away by traditional dealerships and banks.
