Both teams scored their goal from the penalty spot but on opportunities Barrow will feel they had enough to have won the game.
Experienced David McGoldrick had opened the scoring for the League Two leaders after 14 minutes. Ex-Welsh international James Chester tripped Macauley Langstaff to give away a penalty for the second game running.
Dean Campbell gave Barrow a well-earned point when he knocked home a penalty ten minutes from time after a header from Emile Acquah struck a County arm.
County goalkeeper Aidan Stone became their hero as he produced a strong of fine saves to deny Ged Garner and Emile Acquah.
But Barrow keeper Paul Farman had to have his wits about him to prevent Chester from putting one past him for an own goal when the defender diverted a cross.
Stone was called upon for the last time when produced a good late save to deny Ben Whitfield.
