Do the lower sections of the "round houses" on the HMS Victory  protrude outside the eking rail. It would seem that it would be necessary in order to get rid of waste....

The roundhouses nor quarter galleries are in use today or the outlets would be pungently obvious.  There was a discharge pipe to carry the effluent past the body of the ship, I believe.  That scroll below the quarter galleries hid the end of the pipe.  Unless at anchor, the bow wave would probably have kept too much of a buildup from the heads.
