Bass went 2-0 up from a second Barrett goal off a corner early after the break and then had to weather a storm of Royston attacks.
Defenders Harry Vines and Charlie Colling kept the ball away from goalkeeper-captain Becan Davies' goal until the middle of the half when Royston pulled one back from close range.
Into the crucial final 10 minutes, Bass' defence was holding firm with men-of-the-match Barrett and Evan Goldman refusing to let any Royston players past.
Bass held their nerve and were rewarded with a late goal for Tom Needham to finish 3-1 victors.
