Walton was regarded as one of the top scorers of his generation and, in spite of an absence of records, it is believed he scored upwards of 30 goals. Throughout his career Walton made 49 championship appearances, a Kilkenny record which stood until 24 July 1977 when it was surpassed by Eddie Keher. His retirement came following Kilkenny's defeat by Dublin in the 1919 championship. Walton's grandnephew, Liam Doyle, was an All-Ireland medallist with Clare in 1995 and 1997.
