Frank Walkinshaw JP (28 February 1861 — 14 July 1934) was an English first-class cricketer.

The son of W. Walkinshaw, he was born in British Hong Kong in February 1861. Walkinshaw played first-class cricket for Hampshire on three occasions in 1885, which was Hampshire's last season with first-class status until 1894. His debut came against Surrey at The Oval, before playing against the Marylebone Cricket Club and Derbyshire at Southampton.[1] Playing as a wicket-keeper, he took four catches and made a single stumping, in addition to scoring 15 runs.[2]

Outside of cricket, he was a mechanical engineer by profession. He spent five years in China and Japan between 1886 and November 1891.[3] Walkinshaw was active in civic life in Hartley Wintney in Hampshire, where he was member of the rural council. He was also a justice of the peace for Hampshire.[4] Walkinshaw died in July 1934 at Bramley, Hampshire.
