It's in a River Valley, (the River Ryton), so there tends to be higher ground around it.
But as far as the town is concerned, its the top of Castle Hill, I guess.
PS Had a quick look at Worksop on the Old Maps site.
The ground below the Castle Mound is at 36m above sea level, but as I said before the land rises going away from the Town. The Railway Station is at 46m. and it slopes up from there Northward.

Worksop, Nottinghamshire, doesn't have any local geography to speak of. However, William de Lovetot's castle in Worksop was apparently built on the site of the watch tower that originally occupied the highest point in town. However, it's not clear if the castle still exists, as it doesn't appear on any lists of local attractions.

Castle Hill is the highest land point in Worksop. There is a bench to sit on! It's not a large area. I'm not sure if there is a building on which you could stand to be higher?

I did some 'Google-Earthing' and the highest point seems to
be the area around the end of Coppice Road, at about 79 m
altitude.
