Railfuture publish a very useful 128 page guide that lists station and line reopenings up to and including 2009. Partially illustrated too.

Britain's Growing Railway An A-Z Guide. (ISBN 978-0-901283-16-0)

Well worth taking a look at......

Look through the lists on Wikipedia, from here and work backwards.

Obviously that includes stations from all over the world, but all the British ones will be in there.

The 2009 list doesn't include Workington North.

I haven't checked for any others!

Yes it does - so many opened in 2009 that it's been split onto two pages. You can click "next 200" at the bottom to see it.

This report about demand forecasting includes a list of 40 stations opened between privatisation (taken as 1999) and 2010:

Quite interesting in that it attempts to explain why passenger numbers were different...

Newest station in the UK as far as I am aware is Stratford upon Avon parkway, which has been open for a grand total of 87 days.
