Noah's Ark pub (site of) 380 Rotherhithe Street, London SE16
It was about 150 yards east of Beatson Walk and at the junction of a narrow alley called "Screw Post Row". This would make it about where the nearest corner of the white building now stands. It was a three-storey pub, first recorded in 1805 and closed in 1933.

White Horse pub (site of) Rotherhithe Street, London, SE16
This was on the riverside of the street practically opposite Cow Lane and at the north end of Durands Wharf. Commenced trading in 1743 and demolished in 1962 although I do not know when it ceased trading. Cow Lane was on the land side and about 120 yards south of today's 'Clipper' pub. Site shown is a riverside walk named Durands Wharf'. I do not know what the concrete structure is but from the noise coming from it, it could be some type of ventilation shaft.It is in fact the ventilation shaft for the Jubilee Line (I should have realised) [Thanks Stephen Craven]

The Ship pub (ex) 538, Rotherhithe Street, London, SE16
At the junction with Silver Walk and first recorded in 1805 but on a site a little to the west (right) - present building dates from 1934. Pub now called "The Clipper" - has in the past been called "Mermaids Galley Alehouse", "Ship York" and "Ship Tavern". Now missing the three doors that are covered by advertising boards / menus and the sign 'Open all day' was where a good image of a sailing ship was built into the brickwork.

Rotherhithe: The Clipper
Or He Clippe as its nameboard now states.
Please compare with Peter's Image] from 2015, which shows the building in much the same state. However there is now a Sold sign on it.
Old large scale Ordnance Survey maps show that the pub was once named the "Ship".

Pageants Wharf Fire Station, Rotherhithe Street, London SE16
Opened 05-03-1903 at a cost of £3280 and closed in 1969 with the demise of Surrey Commercial Docks. The unusual feature about the units based at the station was that they were not allowed to cross over the bascule bridges either end of Rotherhithe Street and Redriff Road. This was to ensure that if a fire broke out between the bridges at least some assistance would be guaranteed. After it closed the building was taken over by the Brooks Brothers as a car body repair shop. This did so well that they later became a main Ford agent with new premises in Bermondsey.
