久保稲荷神社は、天文13年（1544）旧社地の老桜の根方に二匹の白狐が現れ、その姿を不思議と感じた村人が社を祀ったことに始まると伝えられ、同年愛宕神社宮司守屋伊豆守が京都の伏見稲荷大社の御分霊を勧請したといいます。狐塚及び手水鉢は多くの崇敬者により奉納されたもので、入間市有形文化財に指定されています。

It is said that Kubo Inari Shrine was founded in 1544 when two white foxes appeared at the base of an old cherry tree on the former shrine grounds, and villagers who found their appearance mysterious enshrined a shrine there. In the same year, the chief priest of Atago Shrine, Moriya Izunokami, enshrined a branch of the spirit of Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine in Kyoto. The fox mound and the water basin were donated by many worshippers and are designated as tangible cultural properties of Iruma City.
