Hidden scrub with doe wandering (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

obscured

'hidden' is the definition.
('obscure' can be a synonym of 'hide')

'scrub with doe wandering' is the wordplay.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'wandering' is an anagram indicator.
'scrub'+'doe'='scrubdoe'
'scrubdoe' with letters rearranged gives 'OBSCURED'.

(Other definitions for obscured that I've seen before include "Veiled, hidden" , "Overshadowed or eclipsed" , "Good news from clinic about schoolboy no longer" , "Concealed from view, made indistinct" , "unnoticed" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
