I thought it was the Ship Anson as well, but perhaps it's changed - a few years since I've been to Pompey.

Ship and Castle is 1-2 The Hard, right on the corner as you come out of Victory Gate, then you've got, or had, Jubilee News and the fish and chip shop, then the Ship Anson, then the Ship Leopard (now closed).
Wouldn't have a clue about Guzz in fairness.

I can vaguely picture it now you mention it.
I used to love the old Ships Anson and Leopard for a DTS on my rare visits to Pompey in the 70s and 80s.
