I think all LUL stations are now 7 days a week -

I think all apart from Cannon Street , which is closed on sundays

Actually I think the OP should add Cannon Street to the list , because the underground station is closed on Sundays and so is the NR service I believe ( I am not sure however and would be happy to be corrected

Cannon Street Underground station is open on Sundays - National Rail services relatively frequently operate on Sundays due to engineering works elsewhere

Are there any stations who have service six days a week including Sunday?

Very few if any, I'd imagine. I don't think there are any weekday services at all now that don't run every weekday except maybe a handful of Fridays-only extra services.

Back in the day, I vaguely remember a Kyle Line service that was something like Mondays, Wednesdays Fridays only and the Cambrian Coast line had a Wednesdays-only short service into Pwllheli (for market day). There may have been a few others.

Even with no engineering works Cannon Street sees a service on Sundays, timetable changed last year with the London Bridge rebuilding works. Otherwise Deptford/St Johns/New Cross wouldn't have a Sunday service due to the track layout

Fair enough , I havent been south for a while (North London is nicer) . Google says that sunday services begun in 2015 , for LU and NR . Once London Bridge and Thameslink is ( finally ) finished , will Cannon Street close on Sundays again ?

Kirkham-Blackpool South during the winter. It used to be for a few weeks in the New Year whilst they did a bit of work on the line but now it seems to be as soon as the Lights have finished.

No - it'll be open permanently on Sundays, partly because trains on the Greenwich line can only go to Cannon Street.

Cumbrian Coast Line between Barrow-in-Furness and Whitehaven although soon I think it will have a Sunday service.

North of Mansfield Woodhouse on the Robin Hood line I think is one as well.

Also Peartree, Spondon, Elton and Orston, Willington, Havenhouse, Thorpe Culvert, Rauceby and many others on the Poacher line are not served on Sundays.

All stations on the Paisley Canal Line & all stations on the Maryhill Line (Anniesland excepted) previously counted until Sunday services were introduced for both lines in 2014.

And Newcraighall & Brunstane I think? What about East Kilbride?

I will add Belle Vue, Ryder Brow, Hyde North, Hyde Central, and Woodley all with no Sunday service.

What's happening with the Oxfordshire canal line stations?

Am I right in thinking most stations without a Sunday service typically seem to be small lightly used stations (such as Trafford Park) or busy stations in cities that are mostly used to take people to work (such as Acton Main Line).

The closed stations, they don't get service any days of the week.
