London Pieces is a set of three pieces for piano solo composed in 1917–20 by John Ireland.
A performance of all three pieces takes about 11½ minutes. Their titles are:
- Chelsea Reach (6 minutes)
- Ragamuffin
- Soho Forenoons
Chelsea is an affluent area in central London, bounded to the south by the River Thames. A reach is (among other things) a stretch of water. Chelsea Reach is the portion of the River Thames by Chelsea.
A ragamuffin is a street urchin.
Soho is an area of the City of Westminster, and part of London's West End. The forenoon is the morning.
