If you go to the TTfL web site http://tube.tfl.gov.uk/ and look at the first &
last trains schedule for each line, Sunday closures are listed there. Didn't see
a consolidated list anywhere.

Seems like there used to considerably more. Lancaster Gate used to be closed on
Sundays IIRC.

Indeed there were. Looking at a 1972 map it gives Covent Garden, Ravenscourt
Park and Shadwell as closed on Sundays and Barbican, Fairlop, Mornington
Crescent, Roding Valley and West Brompton as closed on Saturdays and
Sundays.

West Brompton reopened at weekends with the opening of the West London
Line platforms, I believe.

Of course, at the moment, Sloane Square, St James's Park, Blackfriars,
Mansion House and Tower Hill tend to be closed on Sundays, along with
Wembley Park, Preston Road and Northwick Park...

This is correct.

With the shift to seven-day opening, I wonder if the three remaining
six-day stations will open on Sundays any time in the near future...

I imagine Cannon Street only would if the NR station also did.
Otherwise, would it actually have any pass - er sorry - customers?
