Top of the World is possibly a slight exaggeration in topographical terms given the existence of Mount Everest, and even locally if you walk northwards up Boxted Road from the pub it is distinctly uphill. Nonetheless the other three roads leading away from the Top of the World, Long Chaulden, Warners End Road and Northridge Way, all drop away so perhaps they have a point.
