This little building incorporated into the gate wall of Waterstock House used to be a pump house. It has a very distinctive "rhenish-helm" roof, which is unusual in Britain. Though it looks older, the EH listing https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1047558 states that it dates from 1898. The gateway is the entrance to Waterstock House which dates from the C18th (see Bill Boaden's photo here Image])
