Lawrence started his playing career with Hertfordshire, playing for the county in the Minor Counties Championship from 1929 to 1932, before joining Essex for the 1933 season. His first-class debut for the county came against the touring West Indians. Playing a further first-class fixture in 1933, Lawrence would have to wait to 1935 before representing Essex at the highest domestic level, a season in which he played 5 further first-class matches, the last coming against Somerset at the Vista Road Recreation Ground, Clacton-on-Sea.[1] Somewhat of an inefficient batsman at the first-class level, Lawrence scored just 133 runs in his 7 matches at a batting average of 9.50 and a high score of 39.[2] Following the Second World War, he played for Berkshire 6 times in the 1947 Minor Counties Championship.[3]

He died at Fawley, Berkshire on 7 January 1989.
