They are not the same church.  Christ Church was Church of England.  It was destroyed in Sheffield Blitz in WW2.  Zion was a non- conformist congregational chapel.  This is the Find a Grave citation for Christ Church https://www.findagrave.com/cemetery/2437757/christ-church-churchyard

I received the same response re the documents for my great aunt who died in 1921.  I will need to wait or do a FOI request even though much of the information about her was public domain because of a high court controversy regarding her will which was widely reported at the time.

West Yorkshire Archives had a recent exhibition about the asylum.

Here is the email address Wakefield@wyjs.org.uk

Exploring further, I find a John Armitage baptised 6 October 1672 at St Peter's Huddersfield, father Rich.  Born in Fartown near Huddersfield.  Then I found this https://huddersfield.exposed/wiki/Longwoodhouse_Farm,_Longwood_House_Road,_Fartown,_Huddersfield

Genuki describes it thus: "LONGWOOD HOUSE, a farm-house in the township and parish of Huddersfield, 2 miles from Huddersfield."
