World's End is a northern district of Burgess Hill, West Sussex, England. It is thought that the name arrived with the railway – it was here that the 'up' line met the 'down' line during construction of the Brighton main line (1837–1841), though it may also reflect the workers' sense of remoteness while billeted in a local farm (in what is now the Noel Rise area).
Present Day World's End
Currently the area includes its own train station, Wivelsfield railway station, primary school (Manor Field) and recreation ground. It is also sometimes known incorrectly as Wivelsfield – the actual villages of Wivelsfield and Wivelsfield Green are a few miles to the east.
