Barrington, so well known for his excellent work on the migration of Irish birds, died on September 15th, 1915, near Dublin. "〕

Barrington was a farmer and land valuer. He was educated at Trinity College where he gained an M.A.. He wrote reports on the flora of Lough Ree, Lough Erne, Ben Bulben, Tory Island and the Blaskets all published by the Royal Irish Academy but most of his scientific papers are on birds. His best known work is ''The migration of birds, as observed at Irish lighthouses and lightships including the original reports from 1888-97, now published for the first time, and an analysis of these and of the previously put together with an appendix giving the measurements of about 1600 wings'' London : R.H. Porter () Only 350 copies of this 667 page work were printed.
Barrington was one of the leaders of the Royal Irish Academy Rockall expedition of 1896 with Robert Lloyd Praeger and John A. Harvie Brown of Dunipace (1844–1916), a Scottish gentleman naturalist.〔John Wilson Foster, Helena C. G. Chesney (1998) (''Nature in Ireland: a scientific and cultural history'', p. 269 ) "Barrington had an interest in travel and climbed in Switzerland and Canada. He visited Rockall in 1896 with Praeger, Harvie-Brown and others on an expedition partly financed by the Royal Irish Academy and partly by Barrington and Harvie-Brown."〕

His collection of bird specimens (wings and legs of birds collected by light-keepers) stored in paper envelopes are conserved in the National Museum of Ireland and the Ulster Museum
