It is an overpowering 50m high.  The floor slopes at 45 degrees. The opening faces east. Vegetation is almost absent except for a white floweringEpacris crassifolia, seen and photographed high on northern back wall.  Named on a Bush Club walk 11th June 2016 after Bill Lawler whose property is immediately below and bordered by the Wolgan State Forest.
