At the start of the first round, if The Waymoot is one of three starting buildings, do you put 4 VP on it (i.e. 3 from the building description and 1 from the VP on the 1st round area)?

Yes, Waymoot would get 4 VP Tokens placed on it.

The Builder's Hall (page 12) of the rules tells you to take the 3 VP Tokens for the round, and distribute one to each building tile for purchase. The Waymoot has special rules text that takes effect at the When Purchased/Start of Round:

When Purchased and at Start of Round: Place 3 VP tokens on this space.

Twice in the rules, they remind you to perform the Builder's Hall Victory Point distribution, and any special building tiles with instructions for the Start of Round. Once on page 8 under Start of Round

Start of Round - The rounds track on the game board starts out with 3 VP tokens [...] remove the 3 VP tokens from that round’s space and place 1 VP token on each face-up Building in Builder’s Hall.

When Purchased/Start of Round: Some Building tiles have special instructions to be followed when the Building is purchased and at the start of each round. If any of those Buildings are in play, follow the start-of-round instructions for each.(See Appendix 1: Buildings on page 12 for descriptions of these effects.)

Once all start-of-round effects are complete, players take turns in order.

and again in the Rules Reference in the Sequence of Play section.

At the start of each round, remove the VP tokens from that space of the rounds track and add 1 VP token to each face- up Building in Builders’ Hall. Then resolve any start-of- round effects on Buildings in play.
