Who spotted our very own stone circle at Ravensdale Forest in last night's Traitors Ireland?! 👀

For the penultimate mission, @siobhni sent the players into Ravensdale Forest, where they had the chance to add €6,000 to the prize pot and prevent another murder. We'll leave it there in case you want to catch up on @rteone later!

See? We told you. Out here, it's legendary. For Ravensdale and other great spots to visit, check out our link in bio.
