Original hangar...
The original (?) design of the hangar could give a good clue on the location but I know almost nothing on hangars. Hello hangar experts out there? Lucien wrote it's Cazaux so I believe him.
Below and aft of the engine cowling I think we can see a fork having the task of leading a bomb, dropped in a dive, outside the propeller disc, similar to the fork on the Ju 87 "Stuka".
At the time only recent aircraft designs had a three-blade propeller like both types seen here (even "Hurricanes" had a two-blade propeller at the beginning.). The AC in the background has a light-coloured straight line on each propeller-blade to improve security of the ground crews. This was not common at the time either. (Prototype of the well-known Loire-Nieuport LN 401/410 dive-bomber eventually refused by the Armée de l'Air and used in action by the French naval aviation with very heavy losses to Flak?).
