Located next Yotsuji (四つ辻 "Crossroads"), this is one of the four peak shrines of Inariyama, built around one of the minor peaks, Kojingamine (荒神峰 "Wild God Peak"). As such, it is comparable in size to Ichinomine Kamisha, with concentric circles of shrines built side-by-side around the summit, and most of them featuring at least two foxes. Incidentally, during my time in Kyoto, I should end up taking all four of the oaths from this crossroad. Here's how this cluster looks from above.
