Jarvis Cocker Records The Sounds of Historic Places

A new project by The National Trust has had Jarvis Cocker recording the sounds of thirteen properties over three months. Described as "holidays for the ears", the sounds include birds playing in fountains, the footsteps of visitors and a door latch opening and closing. You can download or listen free here.
