It isn't the core, and it isn't the outside - somewhere in between.

Looks a bit like a mild case of Bitter Pit but I am no fruit expert, its
caused by mineral imbalance and is often triggered by very wet seasons,
ifÂ* you look it up it will tell you what you can do to improve things

We're on a chalky clay. I'll keep an eye on the watering next year.

Thanks
