===Barrington Hills Country Club===
In 1921, the Barrington Hills Country Club, with its eighteen-hole golf course, was established on {{convert|200|acre}} of unfarmable land between [[Lake Cook Road|County Line Road]], Oak Knoll Road, and [[U.S. Route 14|Northwest Highway]]. The land was donated by three of the club's early founders: H. Stillson Hart, who owned the farmstead known as Hart Hills just to the east of the club; George E. Van Hagen of Wakefield Farm, who owned the land just to the west of the club; and J.R. Cardwell, whose Oak Knoll Farm swelled along the winding Oak Knoll Road on the club's northern end. Van Hagen became the club's first president. Noted Chicago architect Robert Work, who was associated with David Adler, designed the first clubhouse, which was opened in 1926 and burned to the ground in 1930. Work designed the second clubhouse as well, which opened in 1931 and still stands.<ref>{{cite book |title= A Club in the Country: The Story of Barrington Hills Country Club| last=Schmitz| first=Patty Dowd| year=2007| publisher=Barrington Hills Country Club| location=Barrington Hills, Ill| oclc=165274776}}</ref>
