St Athan certainly had (still has) original Type C hangars, but AFAIK they weren't numbered, nor did any of them sport a windsock.

What makes you think that's where the photo is ?

Re the latest photo, it must be around 1960-ish. Apart from the Victor being white, the Canberra predates the change in the B(I)8 scheme from black to silver undersides and from a white to black serial..

Later photo of XM262 (at Leuchars, if I'm not mistaken):
