Hi I dont know any positives or negatives for endcliffe accommodation. I'm just going to turn up in september and it will be a suprise. They are all quite sociable halls (so I've heard) I guess walking distance to the uni, it might take an extra 5 mins walking from the other end of endcliffe.
I have applied to Lawrencefield. I'm sorry I couldn't be much help
The blocks in the main Endcliffe village, i.e. the ones you mentioned, are pretty much all the same, no negatives or positives other than a couple more minutes of walking to uni from the furthest west blocks.

Derwent is pretty good location. It's opposite the little convenience shop which is quite handy and it's also very close to The Edge where you can hang out or do your laundry. Behind The Edge is the big field where lots of people chill in the summer months and play football so it's a handy location. Everyone knows where The Edge is so it makes it quite easy for people to find your block if you're hosting. It's also good because it's not near the taxi ranks like Howden or Burbage where it can get pretty noisy.
Yarncliffe and Froggatt are very similar. Just a slightly different layout to Derwent but it makes very little difference. The only thing I found with Froggatt and Yarncliffe was because the blocks are back to back, the view out of your window would be a bit sh*t. Whereas with Derwent, you had quite a nice open view (if you were facing the shop and The Edge). Not really important though and shouldn't be a deciding factor. Froggatt and Yarncliffe are very close to the big pond outside which is a lovely place to chill in the warmer months or have little get togethers. Obviously though all this is very accessible from other blocks.
I can't remember if I ever went in Lawrencefield so unfortunately I can't help with that one. Only thing I'd say about it is it's quite out of the way from the other blocks and also not very close to the laundrette.
You'll be fine anywhere to be honest. They're all sociable blocks.
