Default Fulham Broadway station query

This week, I used Fulham Broadway station for the first time in a
while, and I was reminded that the exits for the platforms are halfway
along, forcing you to walk through the new shopping centre they've
built next door.

In the original station, the building was on the other side of the
train shed. The listed building is still there, and now acts as an
eating/drinking court. Quite a few original features remain, such as
the old booking office windows, which now serve rather expensive
drinks (expect to pay over £6 a pint, around three times the price in
the Wetherspoons in the new shopping centre).

But I've not worked out where the original platform exits were. Were
they, as I assume, nearer the road, so it was a shorter walk to exit
the station, with no requirement to walk past a load of shops?
