[2] Whaley suggests that 'Barton' is 'the barley farm or outlying grange', from OE 'beretūn' or, more probably, 'bærtūn', which was used of farms, especially outliers of large estates, used for storing crops.

St Michael's Church is a grade I listed building;[4] Glebe Farmhouse[5] and Barton Church Farmhouse[6] are grade II* listed, with a range of farm buildings attached to Barton Church Farmhouse listed at grade II.

[7] Several monuments in the church yard are individually listed at grade II.
