It was apparently in Washington Township (Burlington County); years ago (ca.1996), I was looking at a poll book in the research library at Batsto, and came across a page for Piping Hill. In 1892, the following residents of the township listed their residence as Piping Hill:

Johnathan Ford
George W. Ford
Watson Ford


In 1894, only George Ford listed Piping Hill as his residence. I still have no idea where in the township this actually was (or is).
