Powke & Park :The same cemetery?

On recent look ups of burials I have found Park Lane Cemetery Cradley but no mention of Powke Lane Cemetery.

The latter is between what I know of as Old Hill and Blackheath but I know Cradley covers a large area.

Are they the same cemetery and if not what is the official name/area for the Powke Lane one as that is where some of my Hackett's are buried.
