Morphology
The meaning 'the highest or uppermost surface' is directly and compositionally derived from 'top' (highest) + 'side' (surface/face). This is a simple, transparent compound following common cross-linguistic patterns, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
Top side comes from the simple image of the top (the highest part) and the side (the surface), meaning the face that points 'up'. That's why people say top side when they mean the upper surface of paper, a cake, or a fence.
