History
Rich farmland and abundant water supplies attracted settlers Jesse Miller and William Van Orsdal in 1834. In the early 1840s other farm families arrived, including German, English, and Irish immigrants, and formed a town near present-day Sutton Road and Illinois Route 68. Initially called Miller's Grove, the community was later named Barrington Center.[2] Farmers brought their crops to nearby markets on the Fox River in East Dundee. Dairy farmers supported a cheese factory in the late nineteenth century.

Barrington Center Church (used by a Korean congregation, the New Friends Wesleyan Church starting in the 1980s) was built in 1853 and used as an army recruiting station during the American Civil War.[3] A memorial plaque outside the church lists 91 area residents - one woman and 90 men - who served in the Civil War.[4] Industry came to the area for a short period in the 1890s, when American Malleable Iron Company built a plant on the northern fringe of Barrington Hills along U.S. Highway 14. The company hired hundreds of Hungarian workers and constructed a residential community for their workers which they called Chicago Highlands. The foundry closed in 1903 and the workers deserted their homes. Combatants United States of America (Union) Confederate States of America (Confederacy) Commanders Abraham Lincoln, Ulysses S.

At the turn of the century, the Barrington area attracted many business executives from Chicago. They purchased the rolling farms and subdivided them into large estates where owners turned from agriculture to horse breeding and riding. By the 1920s residents began marking bridle paths. The Fox River Valley Hunt Club, founded in the late 1930s, aided in continuing the system of trails which traversed both private properties and forest preserve land. By the late 1980s over 70 miles of paths could be found.
The Barrington Horse Show began in 1945. It was held on various estates until 1965, when the 15-acre Barrington Countryside Riding Center became its permanent home. The Center is owned and managed by the Barrington Countryside Park District.
Barrington Hills incorporated in 1957, composed of land only in the northwest corner of Cook County, and expanded over the next five years. In 1959, areas in McHenry and Lake Counties joined the village and in 1962 the Village of Middleberry in Kane County was annexed. The Barrington Area Council of Governments (BACOG), which coordinates some local government services for seven villages in the Barrington area, was formed in 1970. [5] The only public school located in the village is Countryside Elementary School, with about 500 students, in grades K-5, in the Barrington Community Unit School District 220. Older students attend the nearby Barrington High School. Barrington High School, or BHS, is a public four-year high school located in Barrington, Illinois, a northwest suburb of Chicago, Illinois, in the United States. ...

The largest is Spring Creek Nature Preserve, which measures 4,000 acres (16 km²) of prairie, swamp, woods, streams and lakes. Into the 1990s farmers still worked about 3,000 acres (12 km²) of land. Residential properties of over one acre covered 30 percent. There is no downtown center, but the village has a small shopping strip along Route 14. With a population of 3,915 in 2000, Barrington Hills has kept its rural flavor as industrial and commercial development has sprung up around its borders.[6] Prairie grasses Prairie refers to an area of land of low topographic relief that historically supported grasses and herbs, with few trees, and having generally a mesic (moderate or temperate) climate. ...
