   We measure the cross section for the process $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-\psi(2S)$ 
   from threshold up to 8~GeV center-of-mass energy 
   using events containing initial-state radiation,
   produced at the PEP-II $e^+e^-$ storage rings. 
   The study is based on 298~fb$^{-1}$ of data recorded with the BaBar 
   detector. A structure is observed in the cross-section not far above 
   threshold, near 4.32~GeV. This structure is not compatible with 
   the $Y(4260)$ previously reported by this experiment. 
   A single resonance is adequate to describe the cross-section
   in the low-energy region ($<$5.7~GeV).
