Comments on the clue
1.'Vicar finally flipped' doesn't say 'R becomes L' to me
2.terrific idea but I'm not sure about the definition.
3.I don;t think 'flipped' is enough to indicate a substitution of L for R. What dictionary did 'abandoned house' come from?
4.'flipped' to signify R to L is too indirect to be fair to the solver, the definition is a little vague and the surface seems unnatural.
