Barkley found time for one more before the sides went in at half time.
Another penalty from Barkley was registered two minutes after the restart, before he added another two on 50 and 66 minutes.
With 69 minutes gone, James Percival scored a try for Worcester to give them the advantage, though Barkley was back again to hit another penalty on 74 minutes.
