(The) Noah's Ark was in Skinner Street, between the Windsor Castle and the Ship on Launch.

John Phillips ran the pub in the early 1860s. The countermarking EP probably relates to one of his daughters Elizabeth Phillips who took over the pub in the mid 1860s. Later John's wife, Sabina, ran the business from 1868 until her death in early 1873. The pub was demolished in the 1880s to make way for the new road, Dock Street. See link below to a map showing the pub and proposed route of the new road.
