Kept deliberately secret — our litre (anag) (8)

I believe the answer is:

ulterior

(Other definitions for ulterior that I've seen before include "Beyond what is apparent" , "(Of a motive) beyond what is stated" , "Intentionally concealed" , "Beyond the obvious or immediate" , "Situated beyond" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
