The village of Iroshnikovo is located on the Volyushka River. Its name is associated with the local residents' occupation of leather processing, which was called "irkha." This explanation was provided in a church chronicle that was previously kept in the local church. The first mention of the village is found in the document "Reports on the Churches of the Former Pereyaslav Diocese," which states that in 1755 a wooden church was consecrated in Iroshnikovo in honor of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God, built by titular advisor Alexander Fyodorovich Protopopov. After this, the village began to be called Novo-Bogorodskoye. The landowner allocated estate, arable land, and haymaking for it.

In 1815, the construction of the current stone church began. In 1829, a warm chapel was consecrated in honor of Saint George the Victorious, and in 1839, the main altar. The icons of the Lord Almighty and the Kazan Mother of God were particularly venerated. The clergy consisted of a priest and a psalmist. The parish included the village of Iroshnikovo and the villages of Telezhovo, Stepanovo, Myachikovo, Rusanovo, Abrosovo, and Novo-Yefimyevo. The most distant villages were no more than 5 versts from the church. A parish school operated at the church, where 27 students were educated in 1896.
