The building was built as the country home for Frederick Stanhope Peck, a businessman and Rhode Island political figure. It was designed by Martin & Hall, an esteemed Providence architectural firm. The expansive 1927–1928 additions were designed by George Frederic Hall, that firm's successor.[2] Barrington College, a Christian school, owned the building for many years as part of its campus before merging with Gordon College in Massachusetts. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. In 1985 Belton Court became home to the Zion Bible College, which bought the campus for over $5 million. In 2007, it was listed for sale at $13 million, and Zion Bible College moved to Bradford, Massachusetts in 2008. In 2011, a Massachusetts-based investor won a bid for Belton Court at auction. The developer, ShineHarmony Holdings LLC, plans to preserve the property and re-use it as elderly housing, including assisted living, skilled nursing, and memory care.[3] See also
