A fast, lightly protected British battlecruiser design, circa 1919-1920

One concept that was discussed after the end of the war, about 1919 0r 1920, was a ship to match the early design for the American battlecruisers. This would have been 850ft x 104ft, with 8-15in and 16-6in guns. The speed would have been 33 knots, so the side armor was to be on the order of 5in. I just attempted a Springsharp design for such a ship. The main problem with what is needed is Springsharp is the size (too big):
