Apple or pear?

I am probably being a touch timid, but I think this is a pear. Correct?
No fruit that I have observed this year, but I did not look hard and it is at the back. the next one along did have large sweet fruit. So could it be for fertilisation? Mum who put them in knew what she was doing.
thanks for any comment.

There's even a touch of pear rust on a couple of the leaves - nothing to worry about.

Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.

The spores released by pear rust can only infect species of Juniper - they cannot re-infect pears.
In the spring, the spores released by infected Junipers will infect nearby pears - and so the cycle continues.
