A side shrine of Matsubara Jinja (松原神社 "Pine Meadow Shrine"). This should be the last fox shrine I should find in Kagoshima, and with that also the southernmost fox shrine that I should find in all of Japan. Two life-sized stone foxes sit in front, and another two within.

Also, this shrine was renovated relatively recently. You can read up about it (and see some old pictures) on the shrine website here.
