Could someone please tell me the difference between,  Bramley apple and Bramley seedling?  I'm confused!

I am sure they are the same thing.

I am also sure that they are the same thing.  I am sure I read that somewhere during the last week but now I can't find it.  However if you look at the following website there is an interesting factsheet about it's history:-

The one thing that I didn't know before that I found whilst searching other websites was that "'Bramley's Seedling' is a hardy vigorous tree that is triploid, meaning that it needs two other varieties for good pollination."  Thankfully I have other apple trees in my garden.

Many thanks for the info.
