First Indian Rock Hotel

GPS Guess: 40.06722566305567, -75.22078133505487

The First Indian Rock Hot lasted approximately from 1855-1887. That would give it roughly 32 years of operation. It closed down and a second one was built near Monastery Ave. Where was the original Indian Rock Hotel located? The only clue that I have is that it was located at the base of the Rex Avenue Bridge. Some of these side trails onto Forbidden Drive were old roads. I couldn't find any remains of the old hotel. Am I completely off? Let me know.
