It is no longer in operation. HistoryBarrington College was founded by E. W. Kenyon, pastor of the New Covenant Baptist Church, in 1900 as the Bethel Bible Training School in Spencer, Massachusetts. It was relocated to Dudley, Massachusetts in 1923 and renamed the Dudley Bible Institute. It was then moved to Capitol Hill in Providence, Rhode Island in 1950 and renamed the Providence Bible Institute, as well as having purchased Belton Court, a {{convert|150|acre|km2|sing=on}} estate in Barrington in that same year. In 1960, the Providence campus was sold[1] and the college was renamed to Barrington College. Financially struggling to continue operation after 85 years, the College merged with Gordon College, in Wenham, Massachusetts, another liberal arts Christian school in 1985. LegacyThe Barrington Center for the Arts at Gordon is named in honor of Barrington College. The campus was sold and was the site of Zion Bible College, until Zion moved to Haverhill, Massachusetts 2008. Notable people
