There are AGRs at the following: Dungeness B, Hinkley B, Hunterston B, Hartlepool, Heysham 1, Heysham 2, and Torness for a total of 14 reactors.

Most of the magnox reactors are now shut down. I believe Wylfa is the only one still operating. There is also a PWR operating (Sizewell B).

If you want a full list of all power plants, see the link below.
