I don't know this station or it's area at all, but one sad feature of
rebuilding suburban railway stations is that they too often allow only ONE
entrance, so as to increase access control and economise on staff and
machinery.

I couldn't agree with you more, Michael; this sort of thing really
does annoy me too. One of the worst offenders would have to be
Hanwell Station; last time I used it (admittedly a couple of years ago
now) only one side was open, necessitating a long, indirect and
unnecessary walk through side streets to get to the station.

However, it's not really the case at Deptford as there is only one
entrance to each platform currently, and the two entrances are next to
one another on the High Street. As such, what I've suggested wouldn't
really restrict access in the way you describe.
