NR230 is the code for a change of name other than by marriage. AUA is the registration district area code for Southwark, and the date of 17th April 1947 was when the change was recorded.

 

So it appears that Ernest SMITH has had a change of name recorded in the register as Hugh Charles SMITH on 17th April 1947 at Southwark, for whatever reason.
