The 49th vulpine side shrine of Fushimi Inari Taisha, the 42nd within the Kobogataki supercluster, and the 18th in the latter's eastern area. It features the usual pair of life-sized stone foxes, with the left one holding a scroll, and the right one holding an orb.

It has one more name, but I was unable to decipher it. If you feel lucky, you can try to make it out in this high-res version (click to enlarge). It's the one on the middle Iwakura in the back.
