Initially, it included Oddernes, Øvrebø, Søgne, and Tveit. Over time, the borders of Torridal deanery have been changed. In 1883, the Søgne parish was moved to the Mandal prosti and the Tveit parish was moved to the Vestre Nedenes prosti. Also in 1883, the parishes of Valle, Evje, and Bygland joined Torridal when the old Setesdal deanery was dissolved. In 1905, the Tveit parish was moved back to Torridal. On 12 June 1931 the name of the deanery was changed from Torridal to Otredal.
