How to get 120V from 240V

I have a pump house about 50 feet from anyplace. This is at least 16 years old, predating my purchase of the property. It has a Square D HOM612L100F Homeline™ Fixed Main Lug Load Center. It serves (2) 2HP water pumps for irrigation at 240V. The power comes in via a 2 wire + ground cable. The power tests at 240V. I need to add a 120V outlet at the site. I was expecting 2 hot wires but there is only one black. So... What the heck does it take to get 120V or is it even possible? Thanks for your continuing wisdom.
