Is Barrowton a port town?
Barrowton appears to be at the confluence of two rivers which flow into the Saltspear.
Thanks for the question, Anon.

The Wild Wolf’s love
"Brandon loved his sword. He loved to hone it. ‘I want it sharp enough to shave the hair from a woman's cunt,' he used to say. And how he loved to use it. ‘A bloody sword is a beautiful thing,' he told me once."
“Brandon was never shy about taking what he wanted. I am old now, a dried-up thing, too long a widow, but I still remember the look of my maiden's blood on his cock the night he claimed me. I think Brandon liked the sight as well. A bloody sword is a beautiful thing, yes. It hurt, but it was a sweet pain. The day I learned that Brandon was to marry Catelyn Tully, though … there was nothing sweet about that pain. He never wanted her, I promise you that. He told me so, on our last night together.” Barbrey Dustin (A Dance with Dragons, Chapter 41).

Is Barrowton a river port?
It is near a river, but it doesn’t seem to be a river port itself:
Barrowton, too, is somewhat of a curiosity—a gathering place built at the foot of the reputed barrow of the First King, who once ruled supreme over all the First Men, if the legends can be believed. Rising from the midst of a wide and empty plain, it has prospered thanks to the shrewd stewardship of the Dustins, loyal bannermen to the Starks, who have ruled the Barrowlands in their name since the fall of the last of the Barrow Kings.
…The moon was rising over the wooden walls of Barrowton when they stepped outside. Reek could hear the wind sweeping across the rolling plains beyond the town.
Certainly, there aren’t any mentions of quays, docks, ships, or even boats. Indeed, if it wasn’t for the maps, you wouldn’t know that it’s near the water at all.
Hi. I'm not sure if this had been asked before, but I always wondered why Barbrey Dustin would have retained control of Barrowton after her husband died, instead of it going to some relative of his?
Lady Barbrey is in basically the same position we see Lady Hornwood being in during the harvest feast in ACOK: both are/were the widows of ruling lords of the seat, both had no heirs of their body by their husbands, and both are/were chatelaines of their castles in lieu of an agreed-upon heir. Unlike with Lady Donella, though, where there were many competing claimants presented, though, there really seems to be no one else claiming Barrowton as the rightful Lord Dustin. Partly, this may be Lady Barbrey herself: a fierce and intelligent woman, Barbrey has held onto the rulership of the North’s primary town (not including the city of White Harbor) for nearly two decades, an impressive feat in patriarchal Westeros; perhaps no distant Dustin kin wants to try challenging the Widow of Barrowton. Partly as well, the Dustins may be more lacking in close heirs than the Hornwoods were; there don’t seem to be many (if any) Dustin relatives hanging around Barrowton, or obvious heirs of the House otherwise. This combination may have made Lord Eddard (who had to bear burying Lord Willam Dustin far from Barrowton, in the lonely Red Mountains) unwilling to unseat Lady Barbrey as Lady of Barrowton after Robert’s Rebellion, and so the system has just sort of stuck.

"Lady Barbrey is a woman who knows how to nurse a grievance. Be grateful for that. Barrowton is staunch for Bolton largely because she still holds Ned Stark to blame for her husband's death."

What the Lady of House Dustin of Barrowton might wear. Liberty Ca. 1897.
House Dustin is noble house from the north and sworn to Winterfell and the Starks. House Dustin is an ancient house descended from the first men and the Kings of the Barrows. Their sigil is two rusted longaxes, crossed, beneath a black crown on a yellow field.
“Lord Wyman is not the only one who lost kin at your Red Wedding, Frey. Do you imagine Whoresbane loves you any better? If you did not hold the Greatjon, he would pull out your entrails and make you eat them, as Lady Hornwood ate her fingers. Flints, Cerwyns, Tallharts, Slates … they all had men with the Young Wolf.”
"House Ryswell too. Even Dustins out of Barrowton.”
“The north remembers, Frey."
