The National Trust project will give listeners the chance to hear five-minute monologues inspired by nature. Other famous names involved include broadcaster John Sergeant, philosopher Alain de Botton, cricket commentator David Gower, and presenter Claudia Winkleman.
The benches have taken more than six months to make and each one is engraved with three words their celebrity has used to describe their setting.

The talking benches will be at Felbrigg Hall in Norfolk, Castle Ward in County Down, Craigside, Northumberland, Quarry Mill Bank in Cheshire, Petworth House and Park, West Sussex, Cotehele, Cornwall, Derbyshire's Calke Abbey and Dinefwr Park and Castle, Carmarthenshire.
