What’s is happening to my apple tree?

[Why2why]

Good morning, does anyone know what this is?

Dunno, but I'm sure it was chasing me in my dreams last night ...

Ooooohhh it's the black hole!

Sorry OP. Would like to know the answer.

Some sort of rot or fungus I would guess unfortunately, old apple trees can be prone to this sort of thing

I have Googled and it has come up as various fungal diseases. I can't be specific as I can't see it in real life.

Thanks all . It’s still bearing fruits though
