You can fill it and redrill it, but my experience sorting a similar hole left from a curtain pole involved hacking back quite a lot of shit plaster and building it up in layers. It looks great now but was time consuming. You may be able to get something fast drying.
You need to clear out as much loose as possible, pva + water the surface you’re filling (I think 1:5 pva to water, can’t imagine it matters much) and then fill. I have just bought some bonding plaster to fill some big holes (following electrician’s visiting) and some easifill 60 for the final surface.
NB I don’t actually know what I’m doing, I’m an enthusiastic and largely successful bodger.

Was having 2 radiators fitted yesterday but when fitting one under a window it turns out there is about 1 inch of crumbly plaster which just fell straight out. Wondering what the best solution is, can I fill it with something and redrill? Or should I put the radiator on another wall and call it a day. I don't think I can cope with having the wall re plastered any time soon.
