Battling 10-man Barrow held on for a 1-1 draw against Tranmere in Michael Jolley's first game in charge of the club.
Former Everton striker James Vaughan opened the scoring before Scott Quigley equalised from a second-half penalty.
The hosts had to play the last 22 minutes with 10 men after Harrison Biggins was dismissed for a second bookable offence.
Rovers missed the chance to go within a point of the League Two play-off places, with Barrow ending the year three points off the relegation zone.
Quigley was twice denied by Tranmere goalkeeper Scott Davies in an entertaining first half.
