had fallen

Explanation:

have fell is incorrect as the right form of "fall" is not used with "have" to form the present perfect tense

Simple present tense would not work here, as the first verb of the sentence being "cleared" indicates the action took place in the past

had fell is incorrect as the right form of "fall" is not used with "had" to form the past perfect tense
