The place is marked on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 and on the Prussian first survey from 1843 as Kotzederbusch . The place is labeled as a degree on measuring table sheets up to the middle of the 20th century .

The single house Gradeshäuschen was located southeast of Grades on the other side of Stürmannsweg . It was demolished around 1892.

With the municipal reform of 1929, the southern part of Dönberg was split off and incorporated into the newly founded town of Wuppertal with other Nevigeser villages outside Dönberg, the rest of Dönberg with Grades initially remained with Neviges.
