In the rectum.

Explanation:

Faeces is formed in the large intestine after nutrients are absorbed from semi-digested food in the small intestine.

In the large intestine, water is absorbed and the remaining waste is pushed through by peristaltic contractions till it reaches the rectum where it is stored temporarily till it is expelled (excreted) through the anus.
